This area is 70 km southeast of Cape Town, just beyond the Hottentots-Holland Mountains. This region is one of the more intensively farmed districts which produces 60% of the national apple crop. A recent economic shift means Elgin is also becoming one of the country's most notable and successful wine regions. This is because Elgin has the coolest climate of any region in South Africa.

About Le Cap

Le Cap s'étire entre la montagne de la Table et la mer : plages, vignobles, manchots et histoire, près de la pointe sud-ouest de l'Afrique.

Le sommet plat de la montagne de la Table domine tout, accessible par téléphérique ou par des sentiers de randonnée, flanqué de Lion's Head et de Signal Hill. En contrebas, le V&A Waterfront s'agite autour du port en activité, et des bateaux en partent pour Robben Island, où Nelson Mandela fut détenu pendant dix-huit ans. Les maisons colorées de Bo-Kaap grimpent sur les pentes au-dessus du centre-ville et du Company's Garden.
