Road Travel Route 62 A ROAD TRIP LIKE NO OTHER By Stef Terblanche Grobler du Preez / Shutterstock 80 |ISSUE 6|www.<strong>mzanzi</strong>travel.co.za | MZANZI TRAVEL
Road Travel Looking for a road trip with a difference that will surprise, delight and have you coming back time and again for more? Then South Africa’s famous Route 62 is the answer. This is the absolute must-do scenic journey of discovery and adventurous alternative to the N2 highway if you are travelling between Cape Town and Port Elizabeth. The towns and districts along the route are also filled with many interesting, sometimes eccentric, and creative people, extremely hospitable locals, architectural treasures, some extraordinary experiences, superb culinary and wine offerings, unique shops, galleries, hotels, B&Bs, and plenty to explore and do. And while the towns have changed with the times, most of them have retained their 19th century charm. Delightful surprises await the visitor around every corner. The route, which follows the R62 national road, can be divided into two sections: from Cape Town to Oudtshoorn, and the other through the Langkoof from Oudtshoorn to Port Elizabeth. This article covers the first, while the second section will be covered in a future edition. Route 62 has earned itself the admiration of countless travellers locally and from around the globe, many of whom keep on returning. A CNN Travel poll of travel writers and tourists voted Route 62 the top road trip in the world. It is truly a road trip of discovery, fun and easy adventure like no other. An excellent tarred road winds its way through valleys, mountains, wine lands, across rivers, through postcard towns and hamlets, through a hole in a mountain, as well as through South Africa’s longest mountain tunnel, and you can even stop for an ice cold beer or wine at a ‘sex shop’ in the veld. There’s plenty to do along the way, apart from visiting Ronnie’s Sex Shop, which is really only a pub in the veld alongside the road providing nothing but food, alcohol, music and good company…but by now quite a worldfamous pub. Travellers can stop at picnic spots to enjoy the towering mountains and strange rock formations; enjoy local cuisine at the many first-class restaurants and coffee shops along the way; wander around in the quaint streets of picturesque little towns or browse around in the many interesting little shops; book into one of many excellent B&Bs, hotels and lodges; visit any of the numerous art galleries and craft shops; or enjoy wine cellar tours and taste some wine, brandy or Cape port.
