Hermanus - nature and innovation. The word “wagenboom” refers to the protea grandiflora, a magnificent tree native to Hermanus and surrounds. These trees weren’t just admired for their beauty, they were incredibly useful. Early settlers discovered how strong and durable the wood was and used it to make naves - central hubs - of wagons, hence the name Wagenboom which translates to Wagon Tree.
