Redelinghuys is a small town hidden between patches of bluegum trees and surrounded by a rocky hillside. Just two hours’ drive from Cape Town, between Piketberg and Verlorenvlei, lies the charming village of Redelinghuys. The town was founded on what was originally a farm named Wittedrift and today is a refuge away from fast paced life and a sought-after getaway for outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers.
The famous Verlorenvlei (RAMSAR protected) stretches from the upper reaches at Redelinghuys, 30km North and flows into the Atlantic Ocean at Elands Bay. It makes an excellent base for day trips to the seaside or to explore the scenic country side. Verlorenvlei is renowned for its prolific bird life (+180 species), indigenous Fynbos, flora & fauna, potato farms and unspoilt nature.
During the annual flower season (July-September) a multitude of flowers carpet the vicinity with glorious colours and scents. Daisies, chinckerenchees, belladonna lilies, arum and also Pink Afrikaner (red lily), also called the Sandveld Lily are to be seen.
