Panoramic Picnics at Duikersdrift

With sweeping views of the surrounding mountains, Duikersdrift makes for one of the best picnic spots in Tulbagh. Roll out a blanket and relax on the dam lawn, or unwind at one of the secluded picnic spots nestled in the trees, and enjoy a leisurely afternoon with friends and family in the Cape Winelands. Prepared by the farm Deli using the freshest ingredients, our deliciously wholesome and hearty picnic baskets offer a ‘rustic & rural’ dining experience with options catering to foodies, couples, families, children and vegetarians. The Obiqua Deli will also happily assist with vegan and other dietary preferences if discussed and arranged in advance.

For visitors staying at self-catering establishments in the valley, or for those who have a late arrival or want something light after a full day out, Obiqua Deli also offers ‘in-room dining’ hampers. Please enquire with the Deli or your establishment for options.
