Stargazing in the
Karoo is a dazzling spectacle. Due to the very little light
contamination and no pollution in the area, our guesthouse has
perfect opportunities to learn about the seas on the moon, various
constellations, patterns in the sky and stars in general. With our
114 mm Newtonian reflecting telescope on site, the sky is the limit;
see from the Scorpion in September to the Crux (Southern Cross) in
the heart of the Milky Way in winter.
Archaeology The
Karoo is known for some of its rock and fossil formations and the
farm is no exception. There is good sedimentary formations, hard and
layered rock formations within walking distance from the guesthouse
where the amateur archaeologist and fossil collector can scout the
fossils.
Bird watching can
literally be done from the bedrooms, the various verandas, the
balcony at the guest house or on the walking trails. Thus far 143
species of birds have been identified in the area. Visitors can
scout for breeding patterns, resting places and identify nests; for
the enthusiast a trip on the Orange river can be arranged to see
more birdlife there. A bird trail is also available.
Horse riding:
Horses are extensively used on the farm to gather sheep and the
visitor is welcome to spend a morning on horseback assisting the
herders. The farm has more than 60 km of roads the visitor can
explore on horseback or to go picnicking in the veld.
