Discover the Riemland Wine Route

The Riemland Wine Route explores the open countryside around Heilbron in the northern Free State. It is a small, local trail that shows how wine culture is spreading well beyond the Cape.

Inland winemaking faces cold winters and summer rain, so every bottle here tells a story of determination. For wine lovers who enjoy the unusual, this route offers a genuinely different experience close to Gauteng.

Why visit

  • A rare chance to taste wine from the Free State
  • Small, personal producers and country hospitality
  • An easy rural escape from Johannesburg
  • Wide open highveld landscapes
