GARDEN ROUTE NEWS - The Map of Africa is an extraordinary viewpoint in Remskoenlaan, Wilderness Heights, and definitely a must-see.
The world-famous landmark is about 15km from George.
The vantage point overlooking the Map of Africa is a sought-after launch site for hang gliders and paragliders. The large lawn also provides a wonderful picnic spot.
So, if you want to take the family out for a picnic with a spectacular view, this is just for you. The bright and colourful paragliders create a beautiful picture against the blue sky.
The last stretch to the viewpoint is dirt road, but is generally very well maintained.
The Map, as it is known among locals, is a spectacular landscape of mountains and forests. It is amazing how nature formed this “map” of the continent.
Of course, remember sunscreen, a hat, chairs, blankets and your camera.
