Statement of Significance
This landscape unit comprises an important "wilderness" element within the Eerste River, and creates
an important edge to the town. The landscape unit demonstates the relationship between river
corridor and settlement, as well as the rural patterns of use and the wilderness beyond. This interplay
is extremely characteristic of the Cape Winelands, and key to its high cultural significance.
