Rivierplaas Campsite
For bookings of 1 – 3 people, please contact us on Whatsapp for a per person rate (terms and conditions apply). Visit us for a peaceful weekend away with your family and friends. Rivierplaas Campsite is pet-friendly, and situated on a working farm, on the banks of the beautiful Breede River. Only an hour and a half’s drive from Cape Town, it is a convenient and affordable getaway for anybody who owns a tent, bush-trailer, motor-home or caravan. No electricity. The campsite offers ample swimming, fishing and play areas, as well as a zipline (foefie slide) into the river. There are canoes, rafts and other floating devices for everyone to use, at no extra cost. Rivierplaas is a popular destination amongst bird watchers, with around 200 different bird species commonly spotted on and around the farm. There are a variety of award-winning wine cellars in the area, which are open for tastings. Our circular hiking trail of 2,5km will take you on a scenic outing, and can be enjoyed by the whole family, including your dog(s).
Area Info
This is in no small part because it is close enough to the Mother City to reach easily within a couple of hours, but also because little towns like Robertson, McGregor, Bonnievale, Montagu, de Doorns, Rawsonville, Tulbagh, Ceres, Wolseley & Villiersdorp that litter the valley are particularly appealing to visitors, and together with outlying farms, provide a space that gives city dwellers instant reprieve from the grind of city living.
Mountain ranges abound in the valley and it follows that there are roughly 10 alternative scenic routes that lead one here, depending from where one comes.
The Breede River valley stretches from McGregor in the south and Gouda in the west, to Montagu in the east and the Karoo in the north with the N1 passing virtually through its centre in a north easterly direction.
It derives its name from the Breede River that rises in the mountains near Ceres and flows through the valley en route to the Indian Ocean and serves as the main water source for the Breede River Valley.
The valley is littered with wine producing vines due in no small part to the hot climate that is perfect for fortified desert wines like Hanepoot and Muscadel in particular. More than 50 wine estates are incorporated into various wine routes within the valley as well as a Brandy route as a result, and the relatively new and extremely popular Route 62, marketed as the longest wine route in the world, makes its way through the valley to the Klein Karoo too.
The towering Du Toit Kloof Mountains in particular offer incredible views over the valley as one comes across the pass.
