The Koppie was formed 440 million years ago. It's a freestanding hill in the town of Hermanus and is named after Sir William Hoy 1868-1930, a Scotsman and railway manager, who first visited Hermanus in 1910 and visited annually until his death. He and his wife, Lady Gertrude Hoy, are both buried at the summit of the hill, which boasts beautiful views of Hermanus and the Atlantic Ocean
