Area Info
The pretty little railway town of Touws River, between Worcester and Laingsburg in the Karoo, 185 kilometres east of Cape Town
Touwsrivier is one of the few towns this close to Cape Town to have escaped, for the most part, the overexcited exodus of Capetonians to ‘weekend’ homes in villages within easy reach of city living - possibly because the N1 passes through it
Calling it a ‘railway’ town is something of a misnomer however, as though it began its life as the first major staging post, locomotive depot and marshalling yard after Cape Town, its beautiful setting at the summit of the Hex River Mountain Pass belies this polluted image
'Touws' is the Hottentot word for ‘gate’ and the town is regarded as the gateway to Great Karoo. The town is also on the national flower route, which, between July and September, is alive with the vivid shades of Karoo flowers. Touws River is also home to the Cape’s famous fynbos, succulent Karoo and rare renosterveld vegetation and its wide spaces and beautiful views make it a wonderful space in which to unwind
Visit the Loganda pillars, used for astronomical calculations in the 1880s.
