Nestling at the foot of the Outeniqua Mountains, George finds itself at the center of natures “Garden Route” in the Cape Wildflower Floral Kingdom. Situated approximately 430 ks from the Mother City of Cape Town,

George is widely regarded as the hub of the Southern Cape Region. It is therefore the ideal base from which to explore the Southern Cape and Little Karoo. A good road network and the Geo

rge airport link the Southern Cape and Little Karoo hinterland to the major center of South Africa. It is the business hub of the region and offers a variety of conference facilities, restaurants and tourist attractions and activities.

15 ks east of George on the N2 between the Kaaimans River and the Goukamma Nature Reserve, you will discover Wilderness. Nestling between the wooded foothills of the Outeniqua Mountains and the warm Indian Ocean in a region renown for its incomparable natural beauty, vast stretches of beaches and tranquility. It is a haven for nature lovers and adventurers alike. Most people chance upon Wilderness for the first time after sweeping through the Kaaimans River gorge and rounding Dolphin Point. Below stretches a seemingly endless beach; in the distance are hints of inland lakes, rare in South Africa; to the left wooded hills tumble down to the village and further inland are faraway glimpses of the Outeniqua Mountains. Climate George’s mild Mediterranean type climate makes it possible to participate in outdoor activities throughout the year. Summer temperatures average 26˚C and winter temperatures average 14˚C in the daytime.

One of the must-do adventures in Uniondale is a scenic drive up the hill to the Boere Fort. Back in the early days of the Boer War (1899-1902), Uniondale was guarded by five British forts, and four of them still proudly stand today. On January 21, 1901—just two days after war was declared—Commandant Gideon Scheepers led the first invasion, where two troop trains were derailed and two others were looted and set ablaze near Uniondale.

The most famous fort, perched right above the town, was lovingly restored by the author Daleen Mathee during her seven-year stay in Uniondale. It’s a piece of history with a view you won't want to miss!
