Bastiaanskloof is a 2500 hectare private nature reserve, situated in the historic and picturesque mountain pass of Bainskloof, one and a half hour’s drive from Cape Town.
Bainskloof pass, 28km in length, was built by Andrew Geddes Bain, using convict labour and primitive tools, such as picks and shovels, sledgehammers, hand held rock drills, steel wedges and gunpowder to hack and blast through almost impossible terrain.
