Embark on your own Eat, Pray, Love journey as you eat, play, sleep your way along the Rheenendal Ramble.
EAT.
Offering a veritable smorgasbord of dishes, teas, coffees and tasty treats, various restaurants and tea gardens invite you into their tranquil environment. So you can get away from the daily hustle and bustle – and have a slice of cake! How much better can life get?
PLAY.
Dive into the natural rock pools at the Drupkelders, reconnect with friends or family during a picnic at Jubilee Creek, relive Knysna’s gold rush at the Millwood Museum or explore the forest with a guided walk. Enjoy the adrenalin rush of exceptional single track mountain biking, or stroll to Dalene Matthee’s big tree and walk your own circles in our forest.
Visit the various talented crafters and artists and browse their stunning wares – you’ll find anything from honey to cheese; handmade dolls to photography; paintings to clothing and even handmade soaps.
SLEEP.
A multitude of top notch establishments line the Rheenendal main route, but you’ll also find a range of options tucked away off the beaten track. Accommodation in Rheenendal range from comfortable self-catering options to luxuriously affordable guest houses and B&B’s. Come hide away under the canopy of the Millwood forest – it’ll be the best night’s sleep you’ve had in years.
The route will share its rich history and tales of the Knysna forest, the woodcutters of old and South Africa’s first gold rush. Keep an eye out for the brightly coloured plumage of the Knysna Loerie and catch a glimpse of the mysterious forest elephants. Or simply enjoy a coffee, do some shopping and enjoy a great night’s sleep. Either way, take a slow drive and explore, discover and experience the Rheenendal Ramble.
