About Us
Nona Rosa Bushcamp is situated in the Southern Cape along the Garden Route, on the farm Nona Rosa, and hidden on the banks of the Slang River. It is ± 7km off the R322 and halfway between Heidelberg Cape (20Km) and Witsand at the mouth of the Breede River (17km).
The farm is about 800 ha of which ±500 ha is still agricultural land. The rest is untouched bush, renosterveld, krantzes, kloofs, hills and river with big water pools surrounded by trees. The whole of the farm is available for exploring.
Apart from all the activities one can do here, the campsite is also ideal to be used as a basecamp for daytrips to other tourist attractions on the Garden Route. Knysna is ± 2hrs drive from here or take a trip through the beautiful Tradouw mountain pass to the wellknown Barrydale (66km).
Other attractions in the vicinity includes hiking and birding in the wellknown Grootvadersbosch or whale watching (May to November), fishing and large sandy beaches at Witsand. Fuel, liquor, meat and other supplies are available in Heidelberg and Witsand. Doctors are available in Heidelberg (20km).
