Nestled in the rolling
hills, under the
Overberg’s big sky, the
towns along The Cape
Country Meander are home
to some of the region’s
best food and wine. From
fine dining in Greyton
to fresh produce and
home baked-goodies at
farm stalls along the
N2, there is no shortage
of delicious
refreshments and tasty
treats. Slow down, turn
off the highway and
enjoy country
hospitality at it’s
best.
Planning is underway for
this tour and we will
overnight in one or two
of the towns along the
way so that we can feel
as much as we can of the
character of the area,
it’s people, crafts and
unique way of life.

The
Cape Country Meander stretches
along 100km of the N2, an
elegant meander between eight
delightful country towns -
Botrivier,
Caledon, the Elgin Valley/
Grabouw, Genadendal, Greyton,
Riviersonderend, Tesselaarsdal
and Villiersdorp on
Cape Town’s doorstep. Each
boasts its own distinctive
character, yet share the same
magical landscapes and authentic
country flavour and charm. |

A quote on the Meander website
says it all: "Spend
time in villages like Greyton
and Genadendal and before you
know it you’ll be doing the
strangest things, like buying a
pumpkin the size of a small
child because it looks so
beautiful and you’re convinced
you’ll make pumpkin fritters
like the ones you remember
eating when you were growing
up".
“That’s the thing with these
sorts of villages:
they’re
beautiful, charming and
completely intoxicating …” in
the words of the writer, Karena
du Plessis (Source: The
Overberg, published by Struik). |
