If your team’s run out of boardrooms or your presentation needs a little fresh air—literally—Trail’s End Adventure Hotel might just be your best-kept secret.
Tucked away in the scenic Elgin Valley, this isn’t your average conferencing venue—it’s where business, biking, and beautiful views collide.
The Cecil Nurse Conference Centre isn’t just equipped for presentations—it runs entirely on solar power.
- That means even if Eskom decides to take a break, your Zoom calls and brainstorming sessions will go uninterrupted. Power up, reconsider “network time,” and leave your backup plans at home.
Big launch? Small think tank? The space adapts. The venue can accommodate up to 80 people in cinema-style seating, or a more intimate 50-person classroom setup—all with top-notch AV, a slick sound system, and plenty of natural light to brighten brainstorming.
In Built-In Coffee Breaks
Forget stale pastries: Trail’s End serves fresh snacks—think scones, muffins, croissants—alongside coffee and tea throughout your sessions. It keeps minds focused and sugar levels right where they should be.
Nature, Trails, & Team Building
When slide decks give way to fresh air, teams can step right onto the fynbos-fringed trails, wander through nearby vineyards, or recharge in the leafy library nook. Bonus: adrenaline seekers can quad bike, stretch with yoga or pilates, or swim in the solar-heated pool.
Worthy of Overnight Stays
Why rush home when the countryside is calling? With 16 cosy rooms, ranging from private en‑suites to bunk-style dorms, Trail’s End offers just the right mix of rustic comfort and après-conference relaxation. Ideal for team overnight retreats.
Location Magic
Just an hour from Cape Town, Stellenbosch, or Hermanus, Trail’s End is the perfect halfway point—no taxi queues, no traffic nightmares, and ample parking guaranteed. Add a dash of country charm and you’ve got yourself a winning meeting strategy.

So if your next meeting needs more spark than a stuffy boardroom, Trail’s End is where brainstorming meets biking—and your team leaves feeling inspired, not just informed.
