About Grabouw, Western Cape, South Africa

Grabouw is a mid-sized town located in the Western Cape province of South Africa some 65 km south-east of Cape Town along the N2 highway. It is located over Sir Lowry's Pass from Somerset West in the Elgin Valley, which is sandwiched between the Hottentots-Holland, Kogelberg and Groenland Mountains, with the valley floor still being substantially hilly. The population at last census stands at 15,993

The town's economy is based on servicing the surrounding agricultural industry, with the Elgin Valley being intensively used for viticulture and the cultivation of apples, pears, plums and other deciduous fruit. One of the biggest factories in Grabouw is Appletiser which provides the popular Appletiser soft drinks. Tourism is also of importance to the economy. The N2 highway through the valley is extremely busy during the holiday season.

The town experiences a very mild Mediterranean climate, more moderate than most other Western Cape locales, with abundant rainfall, mostly in the winter months, although strong summer south-easterly winds can sometimes bring squalls, typically called the "Black South-Easter" for its gusting winds and showers.

For hiking enthusiasts there are many trails to pick from, ranging from day hikes to more gruelling ten day hikes. These include kloofing, cliff jumping and navigating some of the many mountain pools.
