Oudtshoorn

Oudtshoorn Essentials

Oudtshoorn serves as the gateway to the Swartberg mountains and the semi-arid Klein Karoo. This collection features the Cango Caves, a vast network of Precambrian limestone chambers, alongside historic ostrich show farms that drove the town's economy in the late 19th century. The list includes the Swartberg Pass, a national monument engineered by Thomas Bain, and wildlife sites ranging from cheetah conservation centers to game lodges situated around natural waterholes.
