The Tankwa has become increasingly popular in recent years; famous for its wonder-filled National Park & for hosting the annual Afrika Burn festival. There are many delightful places to stay &, in the high Roggeveld with its winter snowfalls, many fascinating nooks & crannies to explore. But this is not a place for the faint-hearted – we advise travelling these lonely roads with at least a pair of well-equipped high-clearance vehicles, & two spare wheels! This is the first detailed map ever produced of the whole Tankwa & the Roggeveld Escarpment. This double-sided, full-relief map covers, at a scale of 1:200 000, the eastern Cederberg mountain range in the west & the Roggeveld escarpment to the east. In between lies the entire Tankwa-Karoo & the smaller but drier Ceres-Karoo. From Calvinia in the north the map stretches southwards to Middelpos, Sutherland & Laingsburg, & westwards to Touws River & Ceres, with Op-die-Berg & Wupperthal on the western edge.
