Experience Overberg Magazine - Issue 6 - Winter/ Spring 2015

In this issue

Gentle giants have returned to Hermanus, our feature town, and there are a number of amazing festivals scheduled to take place in the next few months all in celebration of these amazing beasts of the ocean. Pack a picnic basket and your binos and head on down the Cliff Path for your perfect vantage point.
Have you done The Cape Country Meander? This is the route you should follow this winter and one we will be focusing on in future issues!
We met some amazing women in Suurbraak, a tiny little historic village in the middle of nowhere. Tiny travels amount to much anywhere in the world and the Overberg is no exception. This community is destined for great things, and the inhabitants are determined to restore their piece of paradise, so be adventurous - take that turn-off, you never know what you may find.
With winter in full swing we went in search of delicious food to warm our bellies...and hearts. Who doesn’t love delicious hot toffee pudding dressed in creamy custard? We found this dream pud along the glorious Hemel-en-Aarde route while doing a wine-tasting tour with the genius that is Wine Flies. It was exhausting moreish work!
This issue includes our EXPERIENCE OVERBERG THIRST GUIDE – from craft beer tasting, to wine routes, cocktails and grappa, witblitz and brandy… and even tea! Enter our competitions and you could win over R15 000 in prizes.
The Overberg is the place to be this winter - wine, mountain-biking, whales, art, festivals, food, fireplaces...and don’t forget to make our Boere Gluwein!
