Tourism and farming are the basis
of our local economy and the town is well equipped for visitors. We have a
supermarket, several butchers and a dairy for those who wish to do their own
catering and our restaurants serve Karoo cuisine at reasonable prices. There is
a wide range of things to do.
The village holds several
festivals: the Olive Food and Wine Festival in April, the Oktoberfest in October
and the Harvest Festival in November.
The district offers a variety of
scenic drives and a circular trip across the Swartberg Pass to the Cango Caves,
returning through Meiringspoort, is a must. If you have a robust vehicle with good clearance, day
trips to Gamkaskloof - 'The Hell' and the Gamkapoort Dam are recommended.
The Karoo National Park is only 1½ hours away.
