The trail
(Green Mountain Trail). Extremely good
value for money. Interesting varied trails,
ups and downs - but while long never excessive
scrambling. Weather behaved although a
couple of days it was hot or humid. But
again nothing in excess.
The guide on the first two days (the
Fynbos Guy - Dominic) was extraordinary
good. It was a tough taks for the two
guides to take it up next two days (they
did not know what we knew from the two
previous days)
The lay-out with surprises (lunch in
the middle of Oak River vineyard with
two lovely girls), the wine tasting (Eerste
Hoop in Porcupine, In Paul Kluwer and
Wildekransw andn Beaumont) were all extarordinary
well done and full of pleasant palate
surprises (and quite a few cases were
bought)
Murray and Alison had fantastic accomodation
and food arrangements for us. Transport
in between was well organised.
All in all thanks for getting us included
- with a very nice crowd - an English
couple, a RSA couple from CPT, a lady
Portugues RSA resident and a photographer/
journalist who is goin to put us all into
Country Life in a couple of months. Not
a single disagreement or unsatisfaction
for the four days and four nights.
Hope this answers your query which you
are welcome to share with others

PS My wife reading above mentioned two
issues. At Oak River lunch they should
ensure shadow sitting for all - and maybe
there was one wine tasting too much (I
disagree with the last point) |
