Calitzdorp Activities

This biodiversity hotspot lies snuggly sheltered between the Outeniqua, Swartberg and Rooiberg Mountains.

Brimming with authentic Klein Karoo character and charm, Calitzdorp also boasts exquisitely unique fauna & flora, a beautiful mix of architecture and some of the best port-style wines in the country.

Soak away your cares in the mineral-rich hot springs of the Calitzdorp Spa or visit during harvest season to pick your own apricots & grapes. Hike the donkey trail, pop into the smallest bar on Route 62 or go wine tasting at numerous award-winning local cellars.
