Located on the outskirts of Acornhoek township, the Mapusha Weaving Cooperative was established in 1973 to give unemployed women a craft and an income. You can visit the loom-filled workshop next to the Catholic Mission, and take home some of the excellent quality carpets and tapestries.
To get there, continue south on Rte 40 for 5km after the turning for Mafunyani Cultural Village and the Orpen Gate, then turn left towards Acornhoek. After 4.3km, turn right onto a dirt road marked ‘Dingleydale’, and after 1.8km, you will see the Catholic Mission on your right.
