Local Attractions
Wild
Olive Farm is situated within ten minutes drive from historical Tulbagh,
with its numerous wine and olive estates, art galleries, museums, coffee shops
and restaurants. Tulbagh also boasts more historical monuments in one street
than in any other in South Africa.
The Farm
Apart
from just relaxing and enjoying the
beautiful scenery and tranquility on the farm, guests are also welcome to fish
for trout, carp and bream or
swim in any of our three dams. Indian kayaks and a
rowing boat are also
available at no extra charge. To date we have recorded approximately seventy
species of birds although we're told by the experts that up to 200 species are likely to
be spotted in this area of the Western Cape.
Kids
are also welcome to help out with the daily egg collecting ritual as well as
feeding our two minature Welsh Mountain ponies "Shiraz" and her
foal, "Minty". Our sheep have also proven to be an
attraction for the
kids as they graze their days away in the meadows.
Local activities
For the more Adventurous at heart, guests are
welcome to bring along their mountain bikes to use on the farm or they can make
use of the more strenuous mountain bike trails nearby. There are also 4x4
trails close by, not to mention hiking and horse riding trails to suit all ages
and skill levels. Golf lovers can enjoy the beautifully maintained and
challenging golf course in Ceres, not even a 20 minute drive away...
