Place of hidden treasures

The village of Nieuwoudtville lies on the Bokkeveld Plateau, where the Cape Fynbos meets the Hantam Karoo, Bushmenland and the Knersvlakte. It is a place where the experience of silence, space and stars contribute to a tranquil way of life.

Visit the Neo-Gothic Sandstone church (National Monument), local historical sandstone ruins, aloe forest, glacial pavement, abundant rock art, the local bulb nursery, Nieuwoudtville Wild Flower Reserve, Oorlogskloof Nature Reserve and Waterfall Reserve.

Outdoor activities can be enjoyed including caravanning, birdwatching, hiking, cycling, hand- and para-gliding, 4x4 routes and stargazing.
