Cape
Town provides a setting for many
scenic wonders, magnificent seascapes and panoramic vistas. This
is a city of culture, built on a history that reflects in the
architecture, cuisine, music and dance. Together with a warm summer
and temperate winter climate, and a friendly community, the Western
Cape and the Mother City are an ideal holiday destination throughout
the year. |

| Wilderness
Wilderness lies 15 km east of George, on the Cape Garden Route between the Kaaimans River and the Goukamma Nature Reserve. It is renowned for its vast stretches of beach, tranquillity and the absence of windswept wetlands, wild and stormy seas. Wilderness overlooks not only the sea, but also the placid lagoon -the Serpentine-, which meanders between the Touws River, Island Lake, Langvlei and Rondevlei. Island Lake is a favourite water sport venue. Encompassed within the boundaries of Wilderness one finds the 2500 ha Wilderness National Park. Five rivers and five lakes, two estuaries and 18 km of Southern Cape coastline are protected within the Park. This rare and sensitive eco-system is home to a wealth of water birds. If you are looking for
a holiday adventure, Wilderness is your playground. So much to
do, whether you are a beginner or advanced, young, old, tired
or energetic. Wilderness provides all the entertainment you will
ever need. |

pumping adventures to sedate walking trails... the choice is yours. |

White River
White River lies just north of Nelspruit nor far from the border with Kruger National Park. It is not a large town but there are some stunning establishments in the fertile surrounding area of scenic beauty. White River is well placed for visiting the rest of the Panorama Route or Kruger National Park. The climate is said to be
one of the best in South Africa, lovely and hot in summer when rainfall
is at its highest, and cool nights during the winter. The farms
in White River tend to be relatively small but the agriculture is
intensive with tropical and citrus fruits in abundance, and vegetables
and cut flowers. |

| Ermelo Ermelo
is the educational, industrial and commercial centre of Mpumalanga
Province of South Africa. Mixed farming (maize, cattle, potatoes,
beans, wool, pigs, sunflower seeds, lucerne and sorghum) and anthracite,
coal and torbanite mining take place here. Ermelo is the crossroads
of three national highways, N2, N11 and the N17. |

Harrismith
The town was founded in 1849 and named after Governer Harry Smith. An important crossroad in the land trade routes, it is still rich in the beauty of the surrounding mountains and rivers. The Freestate with all its glory offers all there is to offer; from Farming to Mining, to pure natural beauty. The Free State Province
also has a lot of attractions in the line of bird watching, wildlife,
hiking trails and sport to name but a few. Golf is certainly one
of the major attractions with golf clubs like the Bloemfontein Golf
Club and the Schoeman Park Golf Club. The Jan Smuts Nature Trail
in Rouxville offers day walks, horse trails and canoe trails. |

Newcastle
At the junction of three
provinces, this 'natural' destination and departure point for
travellers is now the largest town in northern KwaZulu- Natal. |
