Still waters run deep

In the late 1960s, Danie Ochse, a farmer from the Eastern Cape, decided he had enough of Graaff Reinet’s drought. He moved to the Western Cape and bought himself a piece of land next to the water in the hopes that he’d never have to worry about drought ever again.

Here, on the banks of the Berg River, Danie – and then his son George and later his grandson Chris – eventually developed a family resort that’s one of the most popular campsites in the area and attracts thousands of visitors
