The Western Cape region

The Western Cape stretches from the Cedarberg Mountains to the wild Agulhas coast to the expansive Cape Winelands and the glorious Garden Route. The Western Cape is a province of extraordinary diversity in South Africa.

Between Lamberts Bay and Plettenberg Bay, sweeping stretches of sand are punctuated by rocky promontories, fishing villages and holiday resorts. Apart from the scenic beauty and the endless rhythm of the waves, the coast provides ideal conditions for anglers. Solitude is easy to find and fish are abundant in great variety.

In the Boland and further afield, golden wheat fields and fragrant orchards abound, and gracious, gabled Cape Dutch Mansions set among manicured vineyards, enhance a peerless setting.

Towering indigo mountains provide a fitting backdrop for the loveliness of the landscape. The lakes and forests of the Garden Route are also bordered by impressive mountain ranges, and the interior is reached via a number of magnificent passes. North of the mountains, the Klein Karoo is characterised by wide open spaces, undulating hills and enormous ostrich farms.

Every season has its own enchantment in the Western Cape: the flowers of spring, the ripening orchards of summer, the red and golden shades of autumn and the snow-capped mountain peaks of winter.

Stellenbosch area

The beautiful little town of Stellenbosch, roughly an hour from Cape Town, lies surrounded by the Stellenbosch Mountains in the Jonkershoek River Valley in one of the most picturesque settings in the Cape.

The second oldest town in South Africa has fondly been called ‘Eikestad’ or city of oaks and its streets are lined with some of the most beautiful surviving examples of Cape Dutch, Georgian and Victorian architecture in the Cape. Dorp Street is a national monument and taking the time to walk around this cosy old part of Stellenbosch, with its secluded lanes, water furrows, cosmopolitan restaurants and coffee bistros, with superb views of mountain, vineyards and orchards, is an idyllic morning venture.

The name ‘Stellenbosch’ is almost synonymous with the wine industry. Not only does it have the oldest wine route in the country, and arguably the most famous, but the town has one of the most modern experimental wineries in the world, and the only viticultural and oenological department in the country at its university.

South Africa’s oldest music school, the famous Stellenbosch Conservatoire, has its home in this important cultural centre, and there is a collection of galleries and museums housing national and international art collections worth viewing.

For the nature lover there are a number of excellent hikes in the Jonkershoek Nature Reserve. The full-day Vineyard Hiking Trail, a fairly new 24 kilometre long trail, starts on the slopes of the Papegaaiberg and winds its way through vineyards, forests, olive groves and coastal Renosterveld.
