Swellendam is the perfect place to set up base camp and explore the surrounds of Cape Agulhas, Robertson, Malgas, Buffeljachts, Bonnievale or Ashton with much to offer a variety of adventure activities. Resting between the Langeberg Mountains and the N2 highway, approximately 240km from both Cape Town and George, Swellendam is the perfect choice for a halfway stopover and as a base from which to explore the area.
