Greyton is extremely scenic ,being nestled right up against the Riviersonderend mountains and we enjoy some very beautiful sunrises and sunsets.The amount of mature trees also contribute to the beauty of the Village.This treed look is being encouraged and The local Municipality together with Greyton Conservation Society have just planted another 100 oak trees recently.
On Saturday 13th September we had a terrible wind which blew braai embers into a thatched roof resulting in two thatch roofed homes burning down- a terrible tragedy for the unfortunate home-owners and a reminder to the rest of us of the need to be aware of fire safety (fire embers should be extinguished ).
Sunday 2nd November-Fynbos flowers still very beautiful with an incredible variety.We saw a large Cape Cobra (+1.5m)-luckily from a safe vantage point.The Platkloof walk is great for a 2 or 3 hour excursion with a variety of vegetation types and running water.
