"The idea with the Klein Karoo Gravel Corridor is to have a gravel replacement for the tar R62 running through the Klein Karoo. Wide open spaces, adventure and getting off the beaten track is what the corridor is all about. This area has the most amazing hidden gems from accommodation and activities to restaurants"

Klein Karoo Gravel Corridor are gravel roads running from Montagu, Touwsriver, Ladismith, Prins Albert, Calitzdorp etc connecting each other

Love the birds that summer brings to the garden, including sugarbirds, sunbirds (malachite, lesser double-collared and black), white eyes, robins, mouse birds and canaries.

Here, some sugarbirds are having a bath in the midsummer heat.

So privileged to live in this beautiful town. Four pictures certainly doesn't do Montagu ... or the things to do in and around Montagu... Any justice. Just a little taster.

Note: While the pedestrian bridge is cool, the real Ashton bridge is a tad more impressive (as is the way it was built!)
