In 2018, adventure seekers Chris and Karin Spiess moved to South Africa, settling their family on a stunning piece of land. There, they built a small archery range a few steps away from their pool, offering a unique activity for their guests. However, thanks to Chris’s love for adventure, innovation, and a bond formed with the local archers, this small side activity transformed into Archery Adventures, a thriving business actively sought out by guests seeking something unforgettable. Today, with their two breathtaking locations, Archery Adventures continues to deliver fun, unique, and nature-immersed experiences for all who visit.
Unleash your inner archer at Archery Adventures
Located on an Old School Farm in Plettenberg Bay and the Lourensford Wine Estate in Somerset West, Archery Adventures offers visitors three types of archery activities each surrounded by a picturesque backdrop. Consistently nurtured from Chris and Karin’s love of movement and discovery, guests can choose from either 3D archery, with night and day sessions available, or target practice at dedicated ranges.
The 3D archery range takes the archery experience to another level, where, after a hands-on introduction at a target wall, guests will head out down a guided trail through the bush hunting for foam animals. The activity is immersive, and at the end of the session, winners are chosen based on the results.
Despite it being a new activity, 3D night archery has quickly become a guest favourite. Like its daytime counterpart, teams are taken through an extensive introduction before an experienced guide leads the group down a marked trail lit by the team and glowing foam targets.
At Archery Adventures, their two dedicated target ranges are perfect for beginners and competitive shooters. An experienced guide will take guests through a comprehensive introduction followed by a lesson in the basics of shooting in a safe and supportive environment. Once all the guests are confident in their abilities, skills will be put to the test with a friendly competition.
It is worth noting that there are a few requirements to embark on an archery adventure. Firstly, guests must be at least eight years old and are encouraged to wear comfortable clothing, closed-toe shoes, sun protection, and a light jacket. No prior experience is required, and the team will provide guests with bows, arrows, protective gear, and lighting for the night sessions.
