Hooikraal Tented Camp  Verified Listing

Hooikraal Tented Camp is an eco camp nestled under the thorn trees in a picturesque “kloof” between the Cape Overberg and Garden Route. The ideal place to sit back, relax, and enjoy the sounds of nature. Situated only a few kilometres from the small town of Heidelberg on the N2, the camp offers a unique escape from the busy city.

The eco-friendly camp is located on a working farm and offers stunning views of the countryside, with the Langeberg mountains as a backdrop. Guests are welcome to bring along their well-behaved pets.

Accommodation consists of 4 safari tents, 2 dome tents, and 2 spacious 25-sleeper campsites. Each safari tent features a private bathroom and contains a kitchenette area with a 2-plate gas stove, a braai area, a wood-fired hot tub, and solar lighting.

The dome tents have access to communal bathrooms; each unit contains a small private braai area with a braai grid, utensils, and an outdoor bathtub that can be heated with a fire. The campsites have access to a shared splash pool, communal ablutions, and braai facilities.

Hooikraal Tented Camp is also situated less than a kilometre from Die Skeerhok farmstall and Hooikraal butchery, with farm dams stocked with bass, tilapia, and carp, as well as walking, hiking, and mountain biking trails to explore.

The little, rustic town of Heidelberg, regarded as the western gateway to the Garden Route, lies midway between the towns of Riversdale and Swellendam on the N2, just 276 km from Cape Town.

Set on the banks of the Duiwenhoks River, with the soaring Langeberg peaks forming a dramatic backdrop, Heidelberg is a nature lover's paradise and offers a peaceful and scenic atmosphere, particularly as the area remains largely unexplored and unexploited.

The area fuels every eco-tourist's delight, providing birding, well-preserved examples of fynbos, forests, and streams, where one can spend uninterrupted time communing with nature.
