Wide Open Spaces Herold Wine Trail

The Wide Open Spaces Herold Wine Trail offers a unique train, hike and wine experience through the scenic Outeniqua Mountains above George. The journey begins at the Outeniqua Railway Museum, where participants board the Outeniqua Power Van for a one‑hour scenic ride to the top of the historic Montagu Pass. From there, the guided 9-kilometre walk descends through fynbos‑rich mountain landscapes towards Herold Wines, where guests can enjoy lunch and a wine tasting at their own leisure. After lunch, a shuttle returns the group to the museum to collect their vehicles, completing a rewarding circular experience. The trail is rated moderate and is recommended for regular walkers who enjoy a steady mountain hike with memorable scenery.
