From Mountain Lake outside Matatiele to the Franklin vlei, from the heights of Mount Currie near Kokstad to the Cedarville FIats, from the sheer cliffs of the Bokkieberg to the beauty of the cosmos - East Griqualand has so much to offer visitors.

This is outdoor country. So allow yourself to be tempted to explore - whether it's hiking, walking or on a mountain bike. Go in your 4x4 to view Bushman paintings, paraglide from the heights over crystal clear trout waters or relax beneath 100 year old trees while the children visit a dairy.

Have your every wish catered for in a luxury guest house, or choose a rustic self-catering unit. Or if you are just passing through, stay in any of the gracious bed & breakfast establishments scattered throughout the area.

A whole new world opens up to you as you explore our region. With cold frosty winter nights, mild days and warm rainy summers it's a place where the four seasons can be experienced in one day. Here, snow capped mountains reflect the glow of the moon and stars. Originally known as "Nomansland", today everyone is welcome.

A place where each town and village is as individualistic as the people who populate the area: a place where hospitality takes on a whole new meaning, where you feel the warmth of the smiles and friendliness of those who greet you.
