Northern Cape

The Northern Cape is truly a land of contrasts. From the Diamond fields of Kimberley to the luscious green banks of the Orange River and from the stark open plains of the succulent rich Richtersveld to the red desert dunes of the Kalahari. The wide open spaces and blue skies are a call to the soul to explore this fascinating and unique region more thoroughly. Where else on earth can you see fields of flowers stretching in a sea of color as far as the eye can see during Spring or hear the ancient roar of the black maned Kalahari lion in one of the largest untouched wildlife reserves in Africa ? You may even have the opportunity to meet the San ( Bushmen ) people, their ancestors having been present in the region for thousands of years.

NORTHERN CAPE ACCOMMODATION
We have hand selected a few of our personal favorite properties in the Northern Cape for you to view. There are more properties available. Please contact us for more details and further ideas for a tailor made safari in the Kalahari, Richtersveld or Northern Cape.

Kgalagadi National Park, Kalahari Desert

Where the red dunes and scrub fade into infinity and herds of gemsbok, springbok, eland and blue wildebeest follow the seasons, where imposing camel thorn trees provide shade for huge black-mane lions and vantage points for leopard and many raptors - this is the Kgalagadi Transfrontier National Park.

Augrabies Falls National Park

Few sights are as awesome or a sound as deafening as water thundering down the 56m Augrabies Waterfall when the Orange River is in full flood. The Khoi people called it "Aukoerebis", or place of Great Noise, as this powerful flow of water is unleashed from rocky surroundings characterized by the 18-km abyss of the Orange River Gorge.

Richtersveld National Park

Conjure up a desolate and forbidding landscape, seemingly devoid of life, except for some people dotted along the horizon.
