Volmoed is one of the gems on this pilgrimage. Set in its own little valley of 130 hectares of fynbos, Volmoed offers a peaceful venue for individuals, family holidays, weddings, conferences and church retreats. Volmoed offers comfortable accommodation in well-equipped houses accommodating 2 to 12 people each. As the Onrust River makes its way from the heights of Babylon’s Toring through De Bos Dam it tumbles down into this little valley with a waterfall and lovely natural rock pool, setting the scene of tranquillity and natural beauty that are the hallmarks of this Retreat and Conference Centre. 

When Volmoed is your starting point for the Pilgrimage of Hope, we recommend arriving a day earlier to receive a pilgrim’s blessing from one of the chaplains at the Volmoed chapel.
