Piketberg Background Information :
Piketberg was one of the few points where a cannon was placed on top of the mountain and fired to warn surrounding farmers, especially when visiting ships entered the Cape for fresh stock. In other instances it
was fired when danger was noticed and the farmers had to arm themselves and gather together.
Piketberg also served as an outlook post against the Gonjemans who attacked the farms. The cannon has since then been removed and can be seen today in front
of Piketberg High School. Piketberg lies at the foot of the sandstone slopes of the Piketberg mountain range, which towers above the wheat fields at a height of
1459m or 4788ft on Zebra kop (Zebra head). In earlier years the imposing mass of Piketberg was in a way an establishment for the Khoi-san and many examples of their drawings can be seen on various farms. The town Piketberg was established in 1836 when Sir Benjamin D'Urban gave the ruling farm "Grotefontein" to the church council. The church then ruled the town until 1901, and the town grew up around it.
The town serves as an important business center for the farmers, as well as the surrounding smaller towns. Piketberg is a progressive town with a variety of businesses and an outstanding infrastructure. The town
has netball courts, tennis courts, golf courses and rugby fields. Piketberg is about an hour and fifteen minutes drive on the N7 from Cape Town and an hours drive from the West Coast. It stands alone in the middle of
undulating fields of wheat, green vineyards, partly fallow land and flowering yellow canola.
The mountain range is unique as it stands as an island with Piketberg as its main town on its eastern slopes, the village of Aurora on the west and Redelinghuys to the north. If one is looking for a quiet lifestyle then this is the place to explore.
The perfect way to view the whole town and
surrounding areas is to take a trip up the Versveld pass to the top of the mountain where you will drive through acres comprising of apple, pear, peach and orange trees. On the way up you will have the scent of wild
rosemary and will see many yellow Waboom and pink Nerifolia Proteas. Drive further on and take a turn at Langeberg road and head west. When you see a pinetree almost in front of the car, stop and look south. On a clear day Table Mountain is in the distance!
