A queer community built around connection, adventure, creativity, and belonging.
A queer-led community based in Cape Town, bringing LGBTQ+ people and allies together through nature, creativity, conversation, and shared experiences.
Artist-designed collections inspired by fynbos, saltwater, mountain paths and the beautiful act of becoming yourself. Original artworks transformed into limited edition clothing, scarves, prints and objects.
Queer mythology for modern wanderers.
Join The Coven
The coven is growing, babe.
Whether you're looking for queer connection, new adventures, chosen family energy, or simply a reason to leave the house and touch some grass, there's a place for you here.
This is where you'll hear about upcoming hikes, gatherings, community happenings, spontaneous plans, future retreats, and all the beautifully chaotic magic we're cooking up.
No gatekeeping. No cliques. No weird vibes.
Just good people, good energy, and a growing community of queers finding each other in the wild.
Get first access to events, hike announcements, community updates, and everything happening inside the coven.
The Coven Cap
Embroidered with the mark of A Coven of Queers, this classic dad cap is made from 100% organic cotton and designed for wandering. Whether you're a Mountain Moffie, Saltwater Sissy, Fynbos Fairy, or simply partial to touching grass with other homosexuals, this cap was made to accompany the journey.
Soft, durable, and made to age beautifully, it's the kind of cap that gathers stories with every adventure. Wear it on the trail, to your favourite coffee shop, on a spontaneous beach mission, or wherever community finds you.
Featured Experience
Coven of Queers is a free hiking-focused gathering created for LGBTQ+ individuals and allies who want to connect through movement, nature, and shared adventure.
Join us for a guided group hike where community comes naturally, conversations unfold along the trail, and new connections are made in an inclusive and welcoming environment.
Whether you're coming with friends or arriving solo, this is an opportunity to explore the outdoors alongside other queer people who share a love for adventure and belonging.

Meditation • Picnic • Mountain Views
Saturday, 01 August ‘26 | 14:00 – 17:30
A short climb with a big reward. We'll gather at the top for a guided meditation, followed by a relaxed picnic overlooking the city, ocean, and mountains.
Bring a blanket, snacks, and something to share if you'd like.
A Coven of Queers grew from a simple longing: more spaces where queer people can gather outside of bars, clubs, and dating apps. Spaces where we can walk side by side, share stories, make new friends, breathe deeply, and remember that we belong.
These gatherings aren't about performance, fitness, or networking. They're about creating a welcoming circle where every queer body, identity, and experience is respected.
You'll usually find me wandering mountain trails, making art, hosting workshops, collecting stories, and searching for small moments of magic in everyday life.
I'm looking forward to sharing the path with you.
