So, you have booked a South African travel package and now you are starting to think about how you will manage to fill your otherwise gaping itinerary? Not to worry, there is a massive selection of things to do in the Overberg region that has nothing to do with sheep or wheat farming. Nestled between the South Coast and the Garden Route, the Overberg region is reached by driving over the Hottentots-Holland Mountains from Cape Town's side. The landscape is dominated by gently to moderately undulating hills, enclosed by mountains and the ocean and much of the region is given over to farmland, which gives it a distinctly rustic feel. Think waving wheat fields, lush forest canopies and mountains for as far as the eye can see, and you'll almost have the picture. Quad biking enthusiasts can look forward to magnificent nature trails through conservation areas and private farms, including areas in the Elgin Valley and Groenlandberg. Keen to enjoy a spot of game viewing or wine tasting while you're at it? No problem - simply sign up for one of the game viewing- or wine tasting quad bike excursions that are also available for your enjoyment. You could also choose to cosy up to some aquatic creatures if that tickles your fancy. Sign up for a riveting shark cage diving experience or opt for a less frightening whale watching experience if the thought of all those teeth leaves you cold. Hermanus is South Africa's whale watching capital and here you will be able to view the Southern Right whales that come to mate and rear their young in the Cape's gentle waters. So whether it is quad biking, shark cage diving or whale watching you're after - you can rest assured that you will have a whale of a time in South Africa's Overberg region. |
