Sutherland is a small Karoo town, famous for its warm hospitality, snowy winters, starlit nights and dramatic landscapes. Fascinating history, unique natural assets and numerous outdoor activities make Sutherland a popular destination.
Gateway to the universe - that is what they call Sutherland. Land of snow and stars. The coldest place in South Africa. The place where you find the largest telescope in the Southern Hemisphere - a telescope so powerful that one could see a candle flame on the moon. When you take the tar road from Cape Town , you turn off at Matjiesfontein, the famous English Karoo town with its splendid museum, then another 110 km and you reach Sutherland - not only famous for its Observatory but also for its pure , fresh air - fresher than anywhere else in the world!
