Things to do in and around Nassau Guest Farm

Nature enthusiasts will find solace in the network of walking trails that wind through the property. From easy strolls to more challenging hikes, each path offers a chance to immerse yourself in the rich biodiversity of the Cape.

For the more adventurous, mountain bike trails carved into the landscape provide an exhilarating way to explore the surroundings. The rush of wind in your ears and the crunch of gravel beneath your tires connect you to the land in a visceral way.

As the day winds down, the option of a sunset horse ride beckons. Atop these gentle steeds, you’ll trace the hoofprints of countless horses that once rested here on their postal journeys, connecting you to the farm’s rich history.
