Welcome
| The Helderberg area encompasses the towns of Gordon's Bay, Lwandle, Macassar, Sir Lowry's Pass, Somerset West and Strand. The Hottentots Holland and Helderberg Mountain Ranges provide a majestic backdrop to the picturesque vineyards and the spectacular False Bay coastline. The vast expanse of white, sandy beaches, warm water, cliffs and coves make the area a tourist and photographer's paradise. Situated just 45km from Cape Town CBD, the Helderberg is a gateway to the Overberg, Winelands and Garden Route. The Helderberg has its own wine route with over 20 members, one of which is the historic Vergelegen in Somerset West.
For the adventurous, the area offers many hiking trails, a variety of watersports, abseiling and paragliding. Unwind on one of the area's three 18 hole golf courses, take the kids to Monkey Town, relax in the Helderberg Nature Reserve or sip sundowners on a cruise out of Strand or Gordon's Bay. From June to December each year whales can be viewed from the magnificent scenic coastal drive between Gordon's Bay and Rooi Els. |
