ACTIVITIES
There are many different things to do at Bartholomeus Klip, although plenty of our guests love to spend their time with us just switching off. However, if you want to do something more strenuous, we provide mountain bikes for cycling through the reserve or along the farm roads through the wheat fields, and there are plenty of wonderful routes to choose for walks.	Down at the dam guests can take to the water in canoes, kayaks or go windsurfing, freshwater fishing or bird watching. Even the most relaxed guest will want to join our rangers on the morning and evening game drives through the reserve, where there is always something different to discover.

COOKING CLASSES	HORSE RIDING
In our newly refurbished farm kitchen, our team of inspired chefs lead by Louise Gillett, offer hands on cooking classes and demonstrations for small, large and corporate groups. View All	Experience the splendour of the Western Cape on horseback with a variety of horse trails and horse riding adventures in the paarl, wellington and tulbagh areas. View All
WINE TOURS	DAY TRIPS
Choosing the right wine for the right food is one thing: choosing a wine to match an occasion and a setting is something entirely different. Our wines have been selected because we believe they best complement the food, the atmosphere and the setting at Bartholomeus Klip. We have endeavoured to give our selection as much of a local flavour as possible whilst offering you what we think is the best the vineyards within a 30km radius of Bartholomeus Klip, have produced. View All	Guests are welcome (pre-booking essential) to come and enjoy the morning with us visiting the Buffalo Breeding Project and the Quagga Breeding Programme, and tracking the rare geometric tortoise in our wonderful 4 000 hectare private nature reserve, escorted by our qualified guides in an open game viewing vehicle.
