Route 62 is the traveller's route, which meanders between Cape Town, Oudtshoorn, the Garden Route and Port Elizabeth, offering a scenic alternative to the N2 highway.

Route 62 includes the wine cellars and estates of the Paarl, Wellington, Tulbagh, Worcester, Robertson and Klein Karoo Wine Routes, making this the longest wine route in the world!
