CAMPING FOR grown-ups
On a recent trip to the Riebeek Valley, where I camped at the Fish Eagle River Lodge, I had a couple of days to uncover what this picturesque area filled with magnificent scenery, vineyards as far as the eye can see and some very friendly folk had to offer.
Within a diverse community such as this, you’re bound to bump into musicians, artists, farmers and a wide spectrum of highly entertaining people along the way.
The owners of Fish Eagle River Lodge are a prime example of what you can expect in the Riebeek Valley. When I asked Steve if I could get a photograph of him and his wife Kay, he called her over to the front of their large guest house, which borders their wonderful riverside campsites and said, “Kay, come over here quickly and take off your clothes, Stuart needs a photograph for the magazine.”
Much laughter followed as the couple stood for a quick snapshot... fully clothed, I might add.
