This walk begins in the world-renowned Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens, at the foot of Table Mountain. Here, Geoff sets the scene with stories of the Khoi Khoi people who once moved freely across this landscape, living off indigenous plants and the rhythms of nature. As the path winds out of the gardens and into the Constantia Valley, the narrative shifts through the arrival of the Dutch settlers, the shaping of the land into vineyards, and the rise of Constantia as the oldest wine-producing region in the Southern Hemisphere.

Along the way, Geoff brings the layers of history to life: how traditional plant medicine was used for healing to how Constantia’s wines became coveted in European courts. The walk ends at one of Constantia’s great wine estates, where guests enjoy a well-earned wine tasting.

This is not just a scenic walk. This is a storey of continuity and change, told on the very ground where it unfolded.
