Spring has definitely arrived in Johannesburg and the landscape is coming alive with flowers, birds and animals. The best way to enjoy this beautiful weather is to explore the Hartebeesport area through the much-anticipated, family-friendly Aloe Valley Meander Outdoor Festival. What you need to know about the festival: It takes place throughout the Aloe Valley Meander, an area on the eastern side of the Crocodile River Reserve named for its spectacular show of native Mountain Aloes along the Schurveberg range. Lots of local businesses are involved, including hotels, restaurants, conference centres, shops and cafes, ensuring that there is something for everyone. It includes the annual fundraising event, Ride the Rhenoster, a technical mountain bike race set by Miles Crisp that’s as scenic as it is challenging. It’s ideal for families, hikers enjoying the area, bikers looking for a great breakfast run, cyclists, runners, couples and groups of friends – anyone who loves great food, crafts and scenery. Just some of the special events to look out for this September include: Jazz in the Country on 13th at River Place Country Estate, Outdoor Music and Beer Festival on the 12th and 13th at Idle Winds, a great outdoor market on the last Sunday of the month, brandy tasting from Harris and Hare and Family Fun Day at Shonalanga.
