Area Info
Located on the N1 highway, approximately halfway between Cape Town and Johannesburg, Colesburg is an oasis in the heart of the Great Karoo.
Colesberg also lies at the start of the N9, which leads off the N1 to Knysna and Port Elizabeth, making it an ideal spot for travellers to stay on their way from the northern regions of South Africa to the Garden Route and Eastern Cape.
Outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers can admire plants and wildlife around the veld while enjoying numerous walking, hiking, horse riding, and mountain biking trails. Water sports enthusiasts can take a short drive to Gariep Dam, where the Orange River flows over a 374km² area that is ideal for boating, water sports, and fishing. Gariep Dam boasts three surrounding nature reserves, but travellers can also take a drive to the Doornkloof Nature Reserve, on the banks of the Vanderkloof Dam, to spot a variety of antelope, small game, and 173 species of bird. The area is abundant with birdlife and bird watchers can enjoy hours of spotting from the comfort of their private stoep. Hunting can be arranged for those who enjoy the sport.
The region is well-known for sheep farming, which spreads over half a million hectares and is home to some of the country’s top merinos. There are also many nearby stud farms, including one owned by legendary golfer Gary Player, that produce high-quality racehorses and may be visited on request.
