We Love Winter Sunsets in Caledon!

We love the visual effect sunsets have on Caledon’s landscape in winter. The fading sun's pink feathered tendrils create a candyfloss effect on the clouds above the countryside and enhance nature’s bright primary colours below it.

Sunset in Caledon in Winter

Starting in July, the setting sun turns Caledon’s canola farmlands into a magical patchwork blanket hemmed in by layer upon layer of purple mountains. Watching stoically from their perch above the town, the small army of wind turbines is also shrouded in technicolour. Whether you love them or not, these tall beacons create an otherworldly sense that adds mystery and charm to the end of a winter’s day.

As the sun stretches its reach and embraces every nook and cranny of the mountainscapes as far as the eye can see, you can easily imagine farmers from years gone by using this visual timer to mark the end of their day.
