Approximately 1 hour from Cape Town’s City Centre the Elgin/ Grabouw Valley is a fruit farming region found in the Overberg Region of the Western Cape.

The also have tented accommodation all tents are fitted with beds and ablution facilities. If you are thinking of overnighting there you can pre-arrange any meals that you want or pop down to one of the many restuarants in the region.

We enjoyed a morning of adventure with two field guides on Quad bikes halfway up the mountain to view different types of antelope which included Eland, Bontebok , Springbok and others. We came within less than two meters of some antelopes. In typical African style the guides were not hurried and took time to chat and share information on animals and the environment. I had never been on a quad or even dreamed of it but the guides spent time explaining the whole procedure and making sure that we were safe at all times.

Tri Active’s a funfilled place even if your just going for the day you will feel like a new person. Surrounded by Forests and Mountains this peaceful environment is the ideal place to enjoy nature.

While you are in the area you have to pop into one of the many apple and wine farms and enjoy their fruits. It is definately a great place to visit with your whole family
