Oudtshoorn and the Cango Caves mark the convergence of the mountain and coastal roads; over the most dramatic of all passes in the Cape - the unpaved Swartberg Pass, 27 km of spectacular switchbacks and zigzags through the Swartberg Mountains - is Prince Albert, a Karoo village whose spare beauty and remarkable light make it popular with artists.

From Prince Albert , the hinterland of the Great Karoo opens up, the semi-desert that covers one- third of South Africa's surface.
The fruit farms of the Little Karoo spread out into treeless plains, vegetated with low, wiry scrub and dotted with flat-topped hills.
The best of the Karoo can be found in the Karoo National Park, while, in Sutherland, the clear, clean air provides some of the best stargazing opportunities in the world.
