Rhodes

Time has pretty much stood still in this quaint Victorian-era village set in the scenic Drakensberg Mountain Range in the northern reaches of the Eastern Cape Province of South Africa. Rhodes is surrounded by breathtaking landscapes boasting pristine rivers, magnificent mountains and lush undulating vistas. It is renowned for its river fishing, birding, 4x4 trails, mountain biking, and hiking and is a wonderful mountain-break destination. Take advantage of the excellent winter skiing opportunities at the nearby Tiffindell ski resort. Other highlights include the Holkrans at Caves Farm, ceramic classes at the Clay Cafe, and the Epson Wild Trout Festival.
