Due to widespread fires in the region, visitors to Franschhoek planning on heading off towards the Garden Route (or visa versa) should note that the Franschhoek Pass has been temporarily closed, and will remain so until further notice.
Firefighters have been battling the blazes – reportedly started by workers using an open fire to cook food – since the weekend. Weather conditions are also making it difficult to put the fire out.
