Karoo Heartland Where the land meets the sky

The Karoo offers visitors natural, outdoor and manmade attractions in keeping with its landscapes.

Offerings include hiking, mountaineering, game-viewing, hunting, safaris, farm-stay visits, fly-fishing, bird-watching, paragliding, star gazing and even water sports.

San (Bushmen) paintings and engravings can be viewed in their natural surroundings and caves. Dinosaurs roamed this area, leaving behind an unequalled heritage of palaeontology and the area is very rich in fossils.

Working farms with cattle, sheep and goats offer city-dwelling families a farming experience that your children will remember forever while the Karoo’s towns, from its smallest villages to the most gracious town, can be explored for their architectural heritage and turbulent history.

Whilst visiting the Karoo, don’t forget to savour the ultimate in Karoo Cuisine.
