As the Franschhoek Map shows, Franschhoek is located about 45 minutes from Cape Town and close to the towns of Stellenbosch and Paarl. What the map does not show is how pretty Franschhoek actually is.
Enjoy vineyards that date back to over 300 years old, and are steeped in French Hugenot history. Franschhoek lies on the banks of the Berg River against the backdrop of the towering Franschhoek and Drakenstein Mountains. This dramatic setting frames the beauty of rolling vineyards and the pretty town.
