About Newlands Forest
Newlands Forest is well loved by locals. The green, peaceful space in Cape Town is all that remains of former dense, indigenous forest covering much of the eastern slopes of Table Mountain. Back then the forest served as part of the migratory path of the Khoi. Today it’s where people meet to walk their dogs, stroll or trail run the myriad paths on the mountainside.
From its majestic Josephine Mill Museum and Brewery Tours that take you back in time, to its trendy Dean Street corridor, Newlands will satisfy anyone from hipsters to history buffs.
Newlands is famous for many things besides its quaint Victorian cottages and winding back lanes: renowned sports stadia, landmark hotels, excellent restaurants, superlative schools, gourmet food shops.
