Groot Winterhoek
Porterville,Western Cape Groot Winterhoek is another one of those hidden treasures of nature to be found in the Western Cape Province of South Africa. It consists of a large area of prime, unspoilt fynbos with magnificent mountain panoramas wherever one looks. From the mountains, babbling brooks cascade down to form exquisite rock pools that almost seem too pure to tarnish by swimming in. Protea and Erica add vivid colour to the briliant white of the quartzite of the path, while the tea coloured water of the streams contrasts with the rich green of the grass. Having said all this, a few of us opted for the 4x4 route to our selected overnight at die Tronk and left the young and energetic to walk! A great weekend though - the flowers were simply spectacular.
The flowers deserve a few photo's of their own:
