Summer is in full swing and what better way to celebrate it that to join your friends and family for a day out at Slanghoek Mountain Resort in the heart of the picture perfect Slanghoek Valley.  Along with Slanghoek Cellar, Opstal Estate and Jason’s Hill Private Cellar, the valley brings you their inaugural “Slanghoek Summer Splash” on Saturday 8 December 2012 (11am to 6pm).

Pack up your picnic blanket, put on some sunblock, don your sun hat and head off along the N1 to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and join us for a day of wine tasting, food and wine pairings, and live entertainment.

Whilst mom and dad are relaxing with a glass of wine and delicious offerings which will be on sale from our deli stalls, the children will be kept busy on the beautiful 18-hole putt-putt course situated on a fynbos hill, horserides, jumping castle and jungle gym.

· Conservation Project site visit – Jump on the truck and join project coordinator Garth Mortimer from Landcare SA, for a visit to the foot of the Slanghoek Mountains, where the very unique Slanghoek alluvium is being conserved and restored.

· Themed Wine Tastings – The winemakers from Slanghoek Cellar, Jason’s Hill and Opstal Estate will be presenting themed tastings. Not to be missed.

· Owl show/exhibition –This one is especially for the kids…! Our owl expert will present a fun and highly informative exhibition on this beautiful bird species.

These activities will take place at allocated times during the day, with a full programme available upon entry.

Entrance is R100 per person and includes a tasting glass, tasting vouchers and goodie bag.  Children under 18 pay R40 and will also receive a goodie bag.
