| The
town is at the base of one of the oldest mountain passes in the country,
Bain's Kloof Pass, built by master road-builder Andrew Geddes Bain. The
town is the home of the Boland Rugby Union and the professional rugby team
the Boland Kavaliers. The town is also an academic centre, with Huguenot
College, Cape Peninsula University of Technology, the Timothy Ministry
Team, Bible Media and Huguenot High School amongst others.
The beauty of the area is
best viewed either by foot, by horse or by car to take in the scenery of
nature, fynbos, wine, olives and the historical buildings to name but a
few. The pass up to Bain's Kloof winds through pine tree plantations, to
the summit where on a clear day you can see a vast area, consisting of
the Swartland to the left, home of the extensive wheat fields, the Cape
Flats and Cape Town to the right, and the sun glimmering on the sea. |
