From its earliest days Colesberg has been a bustling resting and meeting place, a gateway to the north for explorers and hunters – later also for those seeking their fortune on the Diamond and Goldfields. The town still is a traveller’s oasis on the main routes to the interior and the coast.
At Colesberg the N1 between Johannesburg and Cape Town and the N9 to Port Elizabeth and Garden Route meet.
The town is also the southern gateway to the Lake !Xariep Tourist Route (R58) which covers Gariepdam, Norvalspont, Venterstad, Oviston and Bethulie. The Colesberg-Kemper Museum with its 19th century toy collection, memorabilia, is also the permanent house to the UNISA Karoo Nomad Photographic Exhibition. Together with Anglo-Boer War sites and a fine selection of 19th century buildings
Colesberg offers an exciting reflection on the past and present. Close by is a nine hole golf course with challenging Karoo fairways but well-maintained grass greens and aprons and well-equipped club house facilities. Other facilities in town include tennis courts, cycling and walking routes, bird-watching and unique sunrises and sunsets.
