Ceres in the Cape Winelands region of the Western Cape

Ceres is the administrative centre and largest town of the Witzenberg Local Municipality in the Western Cape Province of South Africa. Ceres serves as a Regional centre for the surrounding towns of Wolseley, Tulbagh, Op-die-Berg and Prince Alfred Hamlet. It is situated in the Warmbokkeveld (Afrikaans: "warm antelope field") Valley about 170 km North-East of Cape Town. 

Ceres is located at the North-Eastern entrance to Michell's Pass and was the old route north between Cape Town and Johannesburg, which was later replaced by the N1 highway, which traverses the Breede River Valley to the South. It was named after the Roman goddess of Agriculture, Ceres, a name which is fitting as the valley in which the town is situated is extremely fertile and is a major producer of South Africa's deciduous fruit.

The Town is rich in History with many Historical Buildings to tell its story, however after an earthquake struck in 1969 many of the original Buildings, were damaged.
Famous for not only its snow but its cherries in summer. Cherry-picking is a huge crowd pleaser at Klondyke Farm.
