About Paarl

Paarl is a historic town located in the Western Cape‘s Winelands region, approximately 60km northeast of Cape Town. Situated along the Berg River with the dramatic Paarl Rock granite formation as its backdrop, this picturesque destination is the third-oldest European settlement in South Africa. The area features lush vineyards, orchards and Cape Dutch architecture against a striking mountainous landscape.

Positioned at the foot of the Paarl Mountain Nature Reserve, the town enjoys a Mediterranean climate ideal for viticulture. Paarl forms part of the Cape Winelands UNESCO World Heritage Site, renowned for its cultural landscape and centuries-old wine-making traditions. Its location along the R45 wine route makes it easily accessible while maintaining a relaxed country atmosphere.
