A Town for all Seasons Stellenbosch is the second-oldest and arguably the most scenically attractive and historically preserved town in South Africa. History is reflected in the neo-Dutch, Georgian and modern-Victorian architecture that bear witness to a proud and dignified heritage. The town’s academic history has its roots in the early nineteenth century when the Stellenbosch Gymnasium, the forerunner of today’s renowned Stellenbosch University, was established. Stellenbosch is a centre for ‘clean’ industry and is a sought-after location for business, ranging from entrepreneurs to major international companies, many of which have their head office in the town. There is a village atmosphere and leisurely lifestyle surrounded by nature, yet Stellenbosch is no more than half an hour’s drive from cosmopolitan Cape Town. Endless stretches of pristine white beach are within 15 minutes’ drive.

The mild weather and unique terroir is ideal for cultivating grapes and the region has produced world-class wines that have amassed countless international awards over the years. The first Wine Route, established in 1971, comprised 17 cellars - today the Stellenbosch American Express® Wine Routes boasts more than 152 members. Brandy, one of South Africa’s finest products, is distilled in various cellars throughout the winelands. The tranquil, friendly town offers a plethora of activities and events for young

and old, the adventurer, nature-lover, music and art-lover, and history buff. Unsurpassed scenery with views over vineyards, mountains and orchards provide excellent photographic opportunities.

In summer, jagged lines of oak trees etched against white walls transform the streets into cool, shady tunnels. Stroll along the streets and secluded lanes and soak up the atmosphere. Mingle with the locals at an open-air coffee shop or bistro, or titillate your taste buds with fine local fare or international cuisine at one of over 80 restaurants and eateries. Hike through vineyards and along mountain trails that have been the source of inspiration to poets and artists for centuries, or relax at one of the many health resorts and spas located in the town, amid rolling vineyards, or set snugly against a beautiful mountain backdrop.

Welcome to Stellenbosch I invite you to experience the old-world charm of the more sedate and pastoral lifestyle of yesteryear, while rubbing shoulders with a bustling community, student life with the creative energy of a modern, developing town. A rich variety of experiences spoils the visitor for choice; all within easy reach and in a pleasant semi-rural setting. Stellenbosch is a place in transition where the visitor has the opportunity to experience a variety of African cultures and religions, as well as engaging in the very process of ongoing change. Stellenbosch is steeped in history, but it also boasts a world-class university and internationally recognised research and innovation facilities, designed to keep the town at the forefront of finding solutions for 21st century challenges. Stellenbosch is like the vintage wines that it is justly famous for; its many nuances will linger with you and make the desire to return, irresistible. Alderman Conrad Sidego Executive Mayor of Stellenbosch

Stellenbosch is synonymous with beautiful natural surroundings, historical buildings, and wine. Its people have the dynamism of youth with thousands of students, but also the wisdom of a long established community of academics, entrepreneurs and wine people. This mix is inspirational and, in many respects, unique. Stellenbosch360 derives its name from its aim to cover these unique features, as well as the many other faces of Stellenbosch. We strive to cover the full circle, uniting our town’s diverse people and its friends and visitors from all over the globe, in their love of our special place. S t e l l e n b o s c h ’s i n t e r n a t i o n a l l y renowned university and other educational and research institutions give the town a vibrant and innovative atmosphere that is an important feature of its cultural and social life.

We invite you to share our town with us. Enjoy its charm, taste its wine and above all, get to know us, its people. Stellenbosch 360 – where the past, present and future form a perfect circle.

Professor Andreas Van Wyk Chairman of Stellenbosch 360

Stellenbosch is a town of many facets - hence the name Stellenbosch 360 - a perfect circle that continues to grow and to embrace all that this historic town has to offer. Its many achievements and accolades range from being the Food & Wine Capital of South Africa to the Sports Capital, The Arts Capital and the Conference and Wedding Capital. The little town of yore has long since shrugged off its sleepy image, and today thousands of visitors flock to Stellenbosch, not only for holidays, but for weekend breaks, business events, conferences, weddings and festivals. Choose to surround yourself with history, or propel into the 21st century in one of our fine dining restaurants and ultra-modern, bespoke businesses. Our Route 360 culture tourism activities provide an opportunity to connect with and interact with locals -arrive as a visitor and leave as a friend! Stellenbosch is abuzz with an energy unique to university towns. The diversity of visitors from around the globe and the many performing and visual artists living and working here, add to the vibe. Welcome to this simultaneously pulsating and restful town.

Trips & Tours There are various ways to explore the town and surrounds or to venture farther afield into neighbouring towns, cities and coastal areas. Walking is still the best way to explore and to soak up the beauty of the town. Take a guided walking tour or set off on your own. For a unique experience, pick up a map and information on Route 360 at the Stellenbosch 360 office and embark on a voyage of discovery about the many cultures that make up this historic town, by meeting the locals and sharing in their daily lives.

Self-drive is recommended for venturing farther afield (most car rental agencies have a depot in town), or travel via shuttle. There are several tours of the town, winelands and excursions to outlying regions.

For more ideas on day excursions and tours and for suggested itineraries for longer tours in and around Stellenbosch and beyond, pop in to the tourism office in Market Street, or log on to the website www.stellenbosch.travel

Base yourself in Stellenbosch and explore the Winelands, Boland, Overberg, Cape Town and Cape Peninsula 1 DAY Itinerary Meet with a local guide at the Stellenbosch 360 office, or purchase an Afrikaans, English, German or French map of ‘Stellenbosch on Foot’ and set off at your own pace. Visit the Village Museum; Toy Museum; Botanical Garden; Stellenbosch Art Gallery; ‘Oom Samie se Winkel’ and Dorp Street that is lined with magnificent oaks and fine examples of Cape Dutch, Georgian and Victorian architecture. Stroll along Church and Andringa streets with their maze of boutiques, and curio and gift shops, interlinked with sidewalk cafés, bistros and restaurants.

Meals are a treat, with a plethora of eateries to choose from. Enjoy a fresh, organic salad and home-bakes, or opt for some traditional Cape fare – accompanied by some fine local wine, of course.

Another suggestion for a day’s outing in the fresh winelands air, is a vineyard walk or a leisurely hike through the Jonkershoek Nature Reserve. The myriad wine farms are an epicurean delight and well worth a day’s outing – or several days! Not only can you titillate your taste buds with award-winning wines, but there is entertainment and attractions galore – for the whole family (see pg 105).

6 DAY Itinerary Stellenbosch’s cultural heritage is unsurpassed and is depicted in local art galleries, antique shops and the Village Museum. The oak-lined, historic village boasts Cape Dutch, Georgian and Victorian architecture and the best way to discover the town’s treasures, is to stroll along the shady lanes, camera in hand. The Stellenbosch University campus is strewn throughout the town and boasts fine architecture, rolling lawns and beautiful gardens. DAY 1 – Stellenbosch and the Winelands Explore the winelands and titillate your taste buds with some of the finest awardwinning wines. Daily wine-tasting, cellar tours and sales are available at most cellars. Many

have restaurant and picnic facilities as well as accommodation, gift shops, art galleries, amphitheatres, wildlife experiences and carriage rides, to name a few attractions and activities. There are cycle routes, walks and hiking trails and horse-trails aplenty. Good food and wine go hand-in-hand and, with over 80 restaurants to choose from, some of which feature under South Africa’s Top 10 Restaurants, you will be spoiled for choice.

Our friendly Kayamandi Township is well worth a visit. Join a Cultural Tour and meet the locals in their Spaza Shops and African Restaurants. Visit crafters and community centres. Book an overnight Homestay, where you will have the opportunity to live with a local African family and be part of all the household rituals and food preparation. DAY 2 – Paarl, Wellington, Tulbagh and Ceres The town of Paarl is 38km away and lies cradled in the Berg River Valley. It is renowned for its illustrious past, scenic

surroundings, flourishing wine and fruit industry and gracious architecture. The 11km long main street is dotted with historic buildings, shops and restaurants.

Drive on to the village of Wellington and over Bainskloof Pass that, in the days of old, was the only gateway northwards to Tulbagh and Ceres. Tulbagh is a beautiful town that was restored to its original splendour following the great earthquake of 1969, and scenic Ceres is essentially a wine- and fruit-growing area. DAY 3 – Somerset West, Strand, Gordon’s Bay and Hermanus Feel like walking on the beach or catching some sun? Head for the Strand just 15 mins drive away. Somerset West is on the way, so pop in to one of the big shopping malls or the Helderberg Nature Reserve. Gordon’s Bay is a quaint seaside town with a Blue Flag beach and from there you can travel the scenic Clarence Drive coastal route to the Whale Capital, Hermanus.

Village Shopping Both a university town and prime tourist destination, Stellenbosch is a shopper’s paradise, where you can enjoy a daily ‘shopping holiday’. Stroll along the oak-lined streets and lanes of the town, with its mountain backdrop, and browse through shops ranging from small local produce stores to large, modern malls. Stellenbosch has seven main shopping centres, namely Die Boord Mall, Eikestad Mall, Simonswyk Centre, Stellenbosch Square, Stelmark Square and Stone Village. The Black Horse Centre offers arts & crafts, restaurants and accommodation.

There are fashion boutiques, gift shops, bric-a-brac, clockmakers, wine merchants, art galleries, antique stores, diamond dealers, and speciality shops, where one can browse for that special something.

Take the time to stop off for a glass of chilled local wine or aromatic cup of coffee and mingle with the local folk at a sunny sidewalk café, bistro or pub.

Historic Dorp Street is a national monument and boasts shops, boutiques, restaurants, coffee shops and bistros, and general stores; the most renowned being Oom Samie se Winkel that dates back to 1904 and is a Stellenbosch institution. Don’t miss the local slow food market, fresh produce market or farm stalls dotted along the R44 between Stellenbosch and Somerset West.

SIMONSIG CUVEE RESTAURANT Some call it art, we call it cuvée… In the time honoured French tradition, cuvée refers to the gentle pressing of the grapes for our Kaapse Vonkel. The first and best free running juice from the first pressing is the cuvée. As the home of South Africa’s first Méthode Cap Classique, it stands to reason that we would apply the artistry of the cuvée in everything that we do, using only the finest in the food we prepare, so that you may experience only the best! Open for lunch, Tues-Sun, and dinner on Friday.

Innovation and Learning Innovation and acquiring skills are increasingly recognised as the attributes that separate those who are prepared for increasingly complex life and work environments, and those who are not. Information and communications technologies (ICT) transformed us and our habits, by the innovative manner in which people can interact in business, in tourism, and in social wellbeing. We benefit from access to information, be it for research, gaining general knowledge, in education and business, or for entertainment. With technology companies shaping our future and innovators creating technologies, we can pursue a better future through the use of internet and cellular phone technologies.

Social Networks such as Facebook, Twitter and Mxit transformed our lives, offering levels of interactivity matched previously only by the advent of the telephone and telegraph systems. Technology leads to innovation which leads to a more sustainable planet and the better sharing of knowledge.

STUDY Each year, students from around the globe flock to the town not only for its reputation as a world-class centre for learning, but also because of the unique village setting and rich, cultural heritage.

Stellenbosch University is recognised as one of the four top research universities in the country and takes pride in the fact that it has one of the country’s highest proportions of postgraduate students, of which almost ten percent are international students.

Boland College is an award-winning and SABS approved leader in Further Education and Training in the Boland region. The town boasts several top schools that include nine secondary and fourteen primary schools. The founding of the first institution for higher education for the Dutch-Afrikaans section of the population; the Theological Seminary of the Dutch Reformed Church; led to Stellenbosch becoming the home of a complex of educational institutions: Rhenish Girls’ School, 1860; Stellenbosch Gymnasium, 1866, currently known as Paul Roos Gymnasium; Stellenbosch ‘College’, 1880-1887, which later became Victoria College, 1887-1918, and eventually Stellenbosch University, 1918; Bloemhof Girls’ School, 1875; Lückhoff School, 1935, was named after Rev. Paul Daniel Lückhoff, a missionary who did extensive work amongst the slaves in Stellenbosch from 1829. Other senior schools are Cloetesville High, Hoërskool Stellenbosch, Kayamandi High, Stellenzicht Secondary, Stellenbosch

Innovation and Learning Waldorf School, International English School and Stellenbosch Hills.

CULINARY SCHOOLS Stellenbosch is South Africa’s culinary capital and regularly features among the Top 10 Restaurants in SA, playing host to over 80 restaurants offering international cuisine to traditional Cape fare. The town is home to the Institute of Culinary Arts, South African Chefs Academy and Private Hotel School. Culinary courses are also presented at Boland College, Bergzicht Training Centre and Stellenbosch University.

DESIGN SCHOOLS In this renowned centre for education and learning, there are several design

schools and academies for the study of graphic design, photography, jewellery, fashion, visual arts, sculpture, art, ceramics, and interior design, to name a few.

SPORTS SCHOOLS Sport is an integral part of life in this university town that has delivered top achievers in almost every sporting discipline. Sports schools and academies offer training courses and some offer accommodation. These include rugby (also the development of youth rugby through coaching clinics at schools), tennis, athletics, swimming and gymnastics. There are also courses on sports leadership, training and development. The university caters for over 30 competitive and recreational sports.

STELLENBOSCH INNOVATION DISTRICT The Stellenbosch Innovation District (SID) is an initiative that spun out of research done by the university to create a system of innovation for the town. The main aims are to foster a culture of collaboration and innovation for sustainability between business, researchers, social interest groups and municipal leadership. This will be done firstly through building upon resources and initiatives already existing in the town. These internal resources will need to be mobilised in such a way that the town also becomes an attractive and viable investment destination for external human and financial resources. Vision – To collaborate and focus resources on creating a smart, innovative and sustainable Stellenbosch. Town’s Goal – To transition Stellenbosch into a model SMART sustainable town by 2020. SID Focus – To specialise in knowledge and innovation for sustainability and build capacity for the Green Economy.

Surveys showed a lack of trained workers in the ﬁelds of domestic work, frailcare, educare and catercare, which became our ﬁeld of focus.

Gourmet Capital

Wines of Stellenbosch Stellenbosch enjoys prominence as one of South Africa’s best known towns, both locally and internationally. History, culture, architecture, natural scenic beauty, sport, education and wine have made the name “Stellenbosch” resonate around the globe as one of South Africa’s premier tourist tourism, wine, business and education destinations. for the wine-lover and tourist. This Route comprises five sub-routes, each with their own characteristics in terms of prominent wine styles, climatic conditions and geographical location. As part of the Cape Winelands, the Stellenbosch American Express® Wine Routes is part of the six most popular tourist attractions in South Africa. It is also connected to the global Great Wine Capitals Network.

The history of the town dates back to 1679 when a small island on the Eerste River was named “Stellenbosch” by Simon van der Stel, governor of the Cape at the time. It is, however, assumed that prior to its official naming, Stellenbosch and surrounds was home to various indigenous communities. In 1971 Stellenbosch became the first wine region in South Africa to establish a wine route, as an organised network of wineries, along which the tourist could experience the region’s famous wines and discover the magic of the winelands. The Stellenbosch Wine Route donned a new cloak in 2002 with the founding of the Stellenbosch American Express® Wine Routes. Sponsorship by American Express® provided Stellenbosch Wine Routes the opportunity to establish a co-ordinated network of more than 152 wineries, each offering a unique cellar-door experience

AUDACIA

In 1930 romance changed the fortunes of one of the Stellenbosch wine estates and created another. Kosie Louw left Neethlingshof and his inheritance to buy a piece of the Annandale farm. Their friends dubbed this venture as nothing less than audacious; from this Kosie derived the word Audacia as a ﬁtting title for his enterprise. Perfectly situated on the southern slopes of the Helderberg mountain, Audacia has 20ha under cultivation. Audacia is a red wine boutique winery, where the focus is on quality rather than quantity. ROOT44 Market on Audacia overlooking the vineyards - come rain or shine, we’re open every weekend.

CHABIVIN CHAMPAGNE & MCC HOUSE

Chabivin’s seed was planted in 2007 after a fortuitous meeting between the Charbaut family and Hendrik Snyman, a young and ambitious winemaker who worked in Napa Valley and New Zealand, before applying for a position with the Charbaut’s in Champagne, France. The Charbaut’s accompanied Hendrik to South Africa and loved the country so much that they bought a small wine farm and created the ‘Chabivin’ brand - a combination of Brigitte, Jean-Pierre’s last names, CHARBAUT, ABIVEN and “VIN”. They have now released their ﬁrst series of MCC’s - The Diary Series, with the Signature Series still sitting “sur-lie”.

NEIL ELLIS WINES

THE PHILOSOPHY: The source of distinctive wines is quality grapes, therefore the vintner’s work begins in the vineyards. Vines vary greatly in their soil, climatic and topographical requirements and no single vineyard can satisfy the needs of all grape varieties. With this in mind, we select vineyards where individual varieties excel. Emphasis placed on caring viticultural practices by dedicated growers, together with careful winemaking, contributes to this pursuit of excellence in the art of winemaking. “A pursuit of quality, nothing less.” Neil Ellis
