Come experience the magic world-renowned British conservationist David Bellamy felt when he said, “The best example of conservation of biodiversity I have ever seen — Grootbos says it with flowers.” At Grootbos, one knows they have discovered a truly exceptional nature destination.
The Eden Project in Cornwall has adopted Grootbos as a major partner in its quest to develop its South African display and promote the link between people and plants internationally. Situated less than two hours from Cape Town and overlooking the spectacular Walker Bay, Grootbos encapsulates not only brilliant service, but also a unique environment of conservation and human development.
Spectacular Flora
Fundamental to this ethos is the amazing diversity of flowering plants at Grootbos. Protecting more than 6,000 acres of unique Cape Floral Kingdom, with more than760 species of indigenous flowering plants, a walk, horse-back ride or four-wheel drive through Grootbos Nature Reserve offers young and old an introduction to nature’s more subtle nuances. In September, the Western Cape is famous for displays of wild flowers, which form colorful carpets.
Most visitors head along the west coast from Cape Town, but Grootbos boasts the most spectacular, and least visited, collection of flora. With 6,000 acres of wilderness at your disposal and indigenous fynbos abounding, the kaleidoscope of colors and diversity of flowers is simply breathtaking!
