SaveCliffhanger - one of the toughest mountain-biking trails in the world starts right here on our farm and snakes its way up and along the Hawequa mountain, through pristine fynbos, forests and breathtaking natural beauty. We host regular events and mountain-biking enthusiasts come from far and wide to tackle this awe-inspiring trail.
The farm as we know it today became the property of Jacobus Pienaar in 1781 and he named it Kanettefontein because of the abundance of reeds (‘kanette’) on the land.
Vines were planted on the rocky slopes of the Hawequa mountain and wine was made for personal use, but fruit farming was the main focus of the farm. That changed in 1815 when the legendary Anna Lategan, adopter of orphaned slave children, took over.
While they still cultivated fruit, they planted vineyards and Canetsfontein started making wine in earnest
