Stay on the edge
of the mountains

Nine cottages and a stone mountain house tucked into the fynbos at the foot of the Boesmanskloof hiking trail. Fresh air, big views, and the kind of quiet you drive two hours for.

Welcome to Boesmanskloof

A well-hidden gem between Greyton and McGregor

Onverwacht Flora sits high in the Riviersonderend Mountains, overlooking the Gobos River with its natural rock pools and the famous Boesmanskloof trail at its base. Come for the hike, a weekend away, or a quiet gathering of family, friends, school or church groups. No through-traffic, no noise, just the mountains.
