About

La Motte Hiking Trail is a hiking area in Franschhoek set along our estate vineyards and the slopes of the Wemmershoek mountain range. Our five-kilometer circular route begins and ends at the estate tasting room, featuring a two-kilometer trail section that leads through indigenous fynbos, a protea garden, and farmland. Hikers can explore the marked Grade 1B route independently or join our guided morning hikes, which include a map, bottled water, and light post-walk refreshments at the tasting deck.

Beautiful hiking trail with stunning views of La Motte vines and mountains across and behind. As you start to climb it gets the heart pumping but then a relatively easy descent though the vines.

Very well maintained 5km hiking trail with amazing vistas and stunning flora. In hot weather is can be a bit strenuous. Bring water and good shoes.

Absolutely stunning walking through the gardens and the stunning architecture. They have really put alot into making the visit an experience. We found a number of cool and sheltered places to sit and enjoy nature. Must visit!
