| Location: South Africa » Western Cape » Riversdale Riversdale lies on the coastal strip between the Lnageberg Mountain Range and the sea – in the so-called grassveld of the winter rainfall area. The abundance of flora earned it the name ‘Floral Paradise of the Garden Route ‘and it is a favourite destination for nature lovers, especially fynbos enthusiasts. Guided tours are offered to various fynbos export farms, while scenic areas such as the KOrente / Vette River Dam offer peace and tranquility. The region offers a wide choice of hiking trails, while the adventurous tourist can explore exquisite mountain scenery with activities such as 4x4 routes, abseiling alongside waterfalls and horseback safaris at the popular Mont Blanc Adventure Farm.
