DRIVING THROUGH BEAUTIFUL SWELLENDAM TOWN IN WESTERN CAPE PROVINCE OF SOUTH AFRICA
Swellendam is a small historical town in Western Cape Province of South Africa on scenic road from Cape Town to George and Knysna and part of magnificent Garden Route.
#Swellendam #WesternCape #SouthAfrica
Accommodation South Africa:
Swellendam is the third oldest town in South Africa after Cape Town and Stellenbosch, a town with around 17,500 inhabitants situated in the Western Cape Province. The town has over 50 provincial heritage sites, most of them buildings of Cape Dutch architecture. Swellendam is situated on N2 highway, approximately 220 km from both Cape Town and George.
Early travellers and explorers who visited the Cape in the 16th century traded with the Khoikhoi people who lived on these shores and in the interior. When the Dutch East India Company established a replenishment station at the Cape in 1652, trade continued inland as far as Swellendam.
In 1743 Swellendam was declared a magisterial district, the third-oldest in South Africa, and was named after Governor Hendrik Swellengrebel, the first South African born Governor, and his wife, Helena Ten Damme. This outlying settlement soon became a gateway to the interior, and was visited by many famous explorers and travellers including François Le Vaillant (1781), Lady Anne Barnard (1798), William John Burchell (1815), and Thomas William Bowler (1860). In time, a village was established beyond the Drostdy, where artisans including numerous traders settled. Swellendam was the last outpost of Dutch civilisation on the eastern frontier, and thus the services of the residents of the town were of utmost importance.
By 1795, maladministration and inadequacies of the Dutch East India Company caused the long-suffering burgers of Swellendam to revolt, and on 17 June 1795 they declared themselves a Republic. Hermanus Steyn was appointed as President of the Republic of Swellendam. The burgers of Swellendam started to call themselves national burgers – after the style of the French Revolution. However, the Republic was short-lived, and was ended on 4 November 1795 when the Cape was occupied by the Kingdom of Great Britain. With the arrival of British settlers in the early 19th century the Overberg boomed, and Swellendam was soon the heart of the mercantile empire of Barry and Nephews, created by Joseph Barry, which dominated trade in the area up until 1870. The Breede River is the only navigable river in South Africa and ships sailed 35 km up river to Malgas to unload and load merchandise.
By the middle of the 19th century, the eastern districts had been colonised by the British settlers and Swellendam was a thriving metropolis. The town served as a useful refreshment station on the long, slow journey up the coast. Today Swellendam is a flourishing agricultural area, and has many attractive and historic buildings which serve as a reminder of its past. The first known sketch of Swellendam was of the Drostdy, by Johannes Schumacher in 1776, when he accompanied the son of Governor Swellengrebel to the town. Today the Drostdy forms part of a museum complex that consist of several heritage sites, namely the Drostdy, the old Gaol, and Mayville.
In June 2011, the Swellendam Municipality area, which includes Barrydale, Suurbraak, Malgas, Infanta, and Stormsvlei, re-declared itself a Republic. This republic is dedicated to the principles of the New South Africa, and celebrates rural life, racial harmony, respect for nature and wildlife, and aims to promote sustainability and an unplugged way of life for all to enjoy.

Kam'Bati River Resort Glamping @ Africamps, onThe Breede River, Swellendam South Africa
Africamps glamping at Kam'Bati is on the banks of the Breede River, a few kilometres from Swellendam in the Western Cape. Here is our independent review and trip report, along with, I hope some tips that you might find useful. The weather wasn't great, more like winter than early summer, but the surroundings and quality of the accommodation and facilities was outstanding. The property is very much geared for families, and also for traditional campers and those who prefer 4 solid walls, with the on site chalets.
It was the last of 11 Africamps properties, and definitely one of our top 3 in the country. I can really recommend it, and it's close (around 2 hours drive) to Cape Town too.

Those few powerful words, from the great man himself, have been a guiding principle in my adult life. With a great weakness for Road Tripping, especially through the backroads of Europe and the great open spaces of Africa. I'm Chris, photographer and videographer, this channel documents my semi-nomadic lifestyle and exploration of new places & new experiences.
I'm not going to lie, I have a short attention span, so what's front a centre today might not be tomorrow. Life is short & the world is wide, and my goal is to live it to the full. Here, and on my other social media channels, I'll be sharing those adventures & places that I experience on this somewhat nomadic life journey.
Next up is a road trip, visiting all 11 #Africamps 'glamping' properties in Southern Africa. Bring on the adventure, the open road awaits!
