Attractions

Chalcedony truly is a home where balance is restored and perspective regained. It is a simple space where the energy of nature feeds back into tired souls and it is enough to just be. The village of McGregor is within walking distance and retains its old-world charm and authentic feel while also offering a great selection of modern amenities including restaurants, coffee shops and a whisky bar.

Most weekends offer live music, or some form of cultural event, but make sure to book in advance as numbers are limited. Every Saturday morning, one will find a local market at the Dutch Reformed Church and this is a wonderful opportunity to sample some of the local cuisine or buy some art works.

A visit to McGregor is not complete without a walk through the world famous Temenos gardens, showcasing all the faiths of the world. For those who love the outdoors, the area is full of incredible hiking trails, mountain pools to swim in, cycling trails and lots to explore.

For those with a spirit of adventure, there is the Bosmanskloof hike, which is a full days experience and takes you over the Riviersonderend mountain to the neighbouring village of Greyton. McGregor is surrounded by world famous winelands which are home to exceptional wine estates, offering winetasting's, lunches and dinners.
