Out and About

Out and About
Clarens has a lot to offer: for the adventurous there are a wide range of activities. For the less adventurous there are many unusual shops as well as art galleries, restaurants and delis. Shopping in Clarens is fun - nothing like the usual shopping mall experience, and since Clarens is home to many artists, this is the place to see great art and meet some of the artists who live here.

Be sure to explore the Gallery at The Clarens Country House to view Peter Badcock's art, as well as his book illustrations. (Peter and Toni not only own The Clarens Country House, but they also live here, and will be happy to show you around.)

There are a lot of activities on offer in and around Clarens.    

Golf

The Clarens Country House guests are invited to play golf at our excellent local golf course at a much reduced rate.   For more information visit: www.theclarens.co.za

Fishing

Guests are permitted to enjoy Trout fishing on the main golf estate dam.  (Next to the 15th hole.).  A permit is required - available from the Pro Shop.

Adventure

White water rafting, abseiling, archery, zipline and quad biking. You can do it all in Clarens with Clarens Xtreme.
