Hotels in Klein Karoo, South Africa

Klein Karoo is a semi-desert region in South Africa's Western Cape, sandwiched between the Swartberg and Outeniqua mountains, and famous for ostrich farms, the Cango Caves, and the annual Klein Karoo National Arts Festival in Oudtshoorn. The climate sees scorching summers (up to 95F/35C) and mild winters (around 60F/15C), so you can hike the Swartberg Pass early in the morning during summer or explore the 20,000-year-old Cango Caves in cooler winter months. Spring (September to October) brings a burst of wildflowers along the R328, making it the perfect time for road trips and photography.
