“The Cape Winelands District Municipality - a thousand things to do and then some wine.” These words aptly describe the district. This unique area is home to wonderful places situated in wide open spaces, where adventure is not only possible, but more than likely! If you are planning your post-pandemic escape, the Cape Winelands District welcomes you into our incredible area.
The CWDM district offers something for everyone, whether you are a family of thrill-seeking mountain bikers, a multi-generational group of foodies, birders, campers, glampers or wine (or gin, beer or brandy) connoisseurs, a bunch of festivegoers, a solo traveller interested in our history or a couple searching for that perfect wedding spot, the CWD has options that will suit your needs and your pockets.
There are a total of 30 municipalities in the Western Cape. Of these Cape Town City is the only Metropolitan Municipality. The others are 5 Rural Districts Municipalities, and 24 Local Municipalities.
The Cape Winelands District Municipality (CWDM) is made of up of five sub-districts covering an area of 22,309 km2. It stretches from Stellenbosch to Paarl and then onwards through majestic mountain passes to Tulbagh, Ceres or Op-die-Berg, or via the Huguenot Tunnel to Worcester and into the Hex River Valley, along the N1 to Touwsrivier or alternatively to Ashton.
For the return drive, one could take a leisurely wind through the backroads to Montagu, taking the long way to Stellenbosch. The biggest advantage in these times when we are all looking for value for money is probably that these destinations are accessible with 30 to 120 minute drive from Cape Town.
