CERES

 The most fertile deciduous fruit producing district in the Cape, surrounded by the Hex River, Witsenberg and Skurweberg mountains. Centre for the fruit-growing area of the Warmbokkeveld, the largest fruit-packing house in the southern hemisphere may be seen here. The Ceres Nature Reserve is on the main road leading from Ceres to Mitchell's Pass. Indigenous plants grow profusely. A toll house, about halfway through the pass, is a national monument. The Dwars River runs through the town, with beautiful picnic, angling and swimming areas.


Ceres

 Ceres, Western Cape
One of the loveliest of inland holiday resorts, with its fruit farms, pools, old Toll House in Mitchell's pass, and winter snows for skiing.

 

A popular holiday resort, with warm summers and often snow in winter providing limited opportunities for winter sports. During November and December you can visit the Klondyke Cherry Farm and eat your fill of cherries.
