KAROO NEWS - During November through to February De Krans offers visitors the opportunity to bring their own basket, cooler or buy a box, head on out into the orchards and vineyards, and pick your own fruit - a wonderful tradition that has been a part of what makes De Krans special for many years.

Important date: The annual Hanepoot picking is from 1 February to 20 February 2022 at R10 per kg. 

Please note that the fruit picking is subject to availability, and to avoid disappointment we advise that you phone the farm beforehand or look out for updates on our social media platforms and website ahead of your visit.

Enjoy a meal while you are there 

Your visit won’t be complete without a stop at the De Krans Bistro & Deli for a chilled glass of De Krans wine and a cheese platter, a cappuccino or a delicious breakfast or lunch.

For those with a sweet tooth, be sure to keep an eye out for the delicious desserts on offer. 

Visitors can choose to sit indoors, which is air conditioned and a blessing on those sweltering Karoo days. Alternatively, choose to sit outside in the shade of the trellised Hanepoot vineyard. 

There is also a playground for young children, two boules courses, as well as a walk-around chessboard, making De Krans a family-friendly destination. What better way to relax and celebrate the start of summer than visiting the countryside and getting closer to nature? 

This summer, take the road less traveled and you might be surprised where you end up. We can’t wait to share in your summer memories.
