The Northern Cape, Colesberg
Tourism Information - (+27) 051-753-0678
Colesberg is the largest Northern Cape town on the N1, 623km from Johannesburg and 280km south of Kimberley.
Surrounded by koppies and flanked by the towering Coleskop, when the sun slips to the horizon, brushing the skies with brilliant hues, Coleskop’s former name, Toverberg (Magic Mountain), seems more appropriate.
So named because, for the traveller, it is visible from 40km but appears to get no closer. In 1814, a mission station was built here in the hope of bringing peace to the volatile frontier area of the Cape Colony.
