Elgin Valley Full Day Zip Lining Tour from Cape Town

The Canopy Tour - Ziplining is a second by second adrenalin rush from one mountain to the other via steel cables down which you slide at some serious pace in the Hottentots Holland Mountain Nature Reserve, Elgin. Grabouw and Elgin are located some 65 km`s south east of Cape Town over Sir Lowry’s pass along the N2 highway. Grabouw is the commercial centre for Elgin Valley The largest single export fruit-producing area in South Africa. The Original inhabitants of the area were the Khoi Khoi pastoralists and the San hunter gatherers. The Dutch colonists settled in the area in the 1600’s dispossessing the natives of their land. The town was created on the farm Grietjiesgat in 1856 by Wilhelm Langschmidt a painter from Cape Town who named Grabouw after its birthplace in Germany. The early 1900’s saw the development of the deciduous fruit farming become the town’s main economic growth engine and now the hub of South Africa’s export of apples and pears. By the end of the 20th century there was a market shift in the balance of the economy with the introduction of viticulture and planting of new vineyards and a significant increase in tourism.

Sliding down a cable stretched between two mountains at some serious pace, hundreds of feet above the valley`s and streams below, while perching on ledges built into the mountain side or cliffs in between slides up to 320 meters in length makes for a thrill a second. This is a major adrenaline shock to your system, not for sufferers of Acrophobia what soever
