Wuppertal, South Africa
18km/11mi south of the turn-off for the Bidouw Valley is Wuppertal, a little town of whitewashed thatched houses set against a magnificent scenic backdrop, originally a mission station founded by the Rhenish Mission in 1832. Here, as in Clanwilliam, rooibos tea is manufactured and widely exported. An individual souvenir which may appeal to some visitors is a pair of velskoene, comfortable walking shoes.
