The Witzenberg region (named after the Witzenberg mountain range) encompasses a fertile chain of valleys north of the Winelands. It is South Africa's deciduous fruit heartland, producing the majority of the country's export apples, pears, and stone fruit, alongside a growing wine industry.
Tulbagh is the region's heritage jewel, with Church Street hosting the largest concentration of national monuments in South Africa. Ceres is the commercial hub, surrounded by snow-capped peaks in winter (one of the few places in the Western Cape where it snows). Wolseley sits quietly between them, producing excellent fruit and wine.
