Elgin is a large, lush area of land, circled by mountains, in the Overberg region of South Africa. This broad upland valley lies about 70 km southeast of Cape Town, just beyond the Hottentots Holland Mountains.
The Elgin region is centered on the town of Grabouw.
The Elgin Valley is one of the more intensively farmed districts of South Africa and produces 60% of the national apple crop. Consequently, it is now internationally known as the place in South Africa “where the apples come from”. However, a recent shift in economic focus has led to Elgin also becoming one of South Africa's most unusual and successful wine regions, with the coolest climate of any region in the country. Elgin wines and tourism have consequently become significant parts of the valley's economy.
