The Klein Karoo Wine Region in the Southern Cape is the easternmost wine producing region in the country, stretching along the Cape Route 62 from Montagu in the west to the Langkloof in the east. North of the Klein Karoo lies the vast Groot Karoo and to its south, coastal planes spill into the Indian Ocean. Enclosed by various mountain ranges, it is known for extreme variations in soils and climate.
 
The geo-botanical diversity of the region is echoed in the broad range of fine wines produced by local winemakers that readily explore the often unusually outspoken variation in cultivar character. While allowing for appealing blends, some of the coolest wine areas in South Africa along the majestic Outeniqua, Langeberge and Swartberg mountains, yield crispy white and full-bodied red varietals. Importantly, nurturing a tradition rooted in the early history of wine in South Africa, the Klein Karoo is the mainstay of excellent Cape Pot Still brandies, dessert wines from Muscat varieties and Port-style wines made from Portuguese cultivars.
 
The Klein Karoo Wine Region is one of the most diverse of South Africa’s wine regions and a travel destination in its own right. Furthermore, the Cape Route 62 runs parallel to the Garden Route and is an alternative route to travel from Cape Town to Knysna. The different towns in the Klein Karoo region are ideally situated to accommodate day visitors from the costal towns. Therefore 4 different Day Trips highlights the attraction in each town.
