Ladismith

Legend has it that the extraordinary mountain peaks to the west of Ladismith were cleft in two by an angry old witch who could not find a way through the mountains.

Had she found her way through, she would have found a sweet little town superbly set against the mountains, where life meanders along at a slow pace.

As you walk up the path to the neo-gothic Dutch Reformed Church, the crackle underfoot is due to a path laid not with gravel but with peach pips. This small detail tells you a great deal about the produce of the area.
