The Fynbos & Wine Experience – Kirstenbosch to Constantia
Step into a soulful journey where nature, heritage, and wine converge. Coast to Coast’s Fynbos & Wine Experience is a six-hour walking adventure through some of Cape Town’s most treasured landscapes, designed for those who love to explore on foot while sipping on the finest wines.
Your adventure begins at the iconic Kirstenbosch National Botanical Gardens, a lush sanctuary of indigenous plants once used by the Khoi and San people. As you wander along the winding trails and the elevated Boomslang Walkway, sweeping vistas of Cape Town and the surrounding mountains set the stage for a day of discovery.
From Kirstenbosch, the trail leads you through the serene Cecilia Forest, where gentle, spring-fed paths and the songs of local birds guide you toward Constantia Nek. Here, you pause for a celebratory glass of bubbly, raising a toast to the beauty surrounding you.
The final leg descends into the historic Constantia Wine Valley, arriving at a boutique vineyard for a curated wine tasting experience. Savor five exceptional wines as your expert guide shares the stories behind the vines and the valley’s rich history. The walk concludes with a seasonal lunch at the vineyard, framed by panoramic views and the tranquillity of the Cape Winelands.
This moderate-level hike combines gentle inclines, rich cultural storytelling, and world-class wine, making it ideal for wine lovers, nature enthusiasts, walkers, and cultural travellers alike. Every step along this journey uncovers the character of the Cape, from fynbos-covered trails to heritage-rich vineyards.
