This Festival showcases the unique attitude of "work hard play hard" of the wonderful people of this border area. Whatever you do don't miss the Pip spitting competition and please sample some of the local cherry " mampoer" . Go easy on the tasting or you could well miss the festival altogether.  
Besides wonderful food & drinks featuring these heavenly fruits, there's a range of tours:
The Cherry Picking Tour
The Asparagus Tour
The Sandstone Cutting Tour
Dam & Boat Tours (and lots more1)

There's also rock climbing, abseiling, mystic healing, awesome bike trails, fishing, game viewing, hiking & boat trips.
