The Spice Route
The Spice Route Destination offers tastings and dining experiences. All the venues are within easy walking distance of one another. You can explore the Destination on foot and at leisure and enjoy the magnificent views of the Paarl Winelands.
The farm itself dates back to 1693 and was originally named Leeuwenjagt, meaning “hunting lions”. The heritage of Spice Route Destination goes back to the historical mariners who used to trade spices from the East in Europe along the “Spice Route” in the 15th century. Spice Route, as it is known today, was initiated in 1997 by the current owners.
