Spier’s Riverside Picnics combine the two key ingredients that make the perfect picnic – natural beauty and a variety of farm-fresh food choices. At Spier’s historic wine farm, both are in abundance.
You are now able to enjoy the new Riverside picnic area – a serene spot with panoramic views of the Helderberg and soothing sounds of the meandering Eerste River. Nestled amongst big granite boulders alongside the dam, the spot’s ideal for soaking up the sun while devouring a deliciously fresh summer picnic and Spier’s award-winning wines.
Parents, head over to the werf – situated next to the Elemental Play Garden – where your little ones can play with carefree abandon. Breathe in the fresh farm air and the inviting aromas of your picnic basket. The farm is yours to enjoy.
