Take a short walk or experience a trail of several days. The Swellendam Walking Trail is 74 kilometres long. The Swellendam golfcourse is nested at the feet of the Langeberg mountains. The almost private golfcourse offers just 9 holes, but the also experienced golfer would like the course. A none-affilated fee of R 80 (2005), almost no waiting / reservation times makes the course very attractive. You can also explore the surroundings by canoe.
