Free State Attractions

The Free State is a rural province of wide horizons and blue skies, with farmland, mountains, goldfields and widely dispersed towns.

	Gariep Dam: Beautiful sunsets and the tranquillity of a vast expanse of water make Gariep Dam a must for those seeking a retreat from the rush of everyday-life. Boating and water sports are major attractions
	Sandveld Dam Nature Reserve: Weavers have built several communal nests in the reserve and white-backed vultures breed in large nests on top of Camelthorn trees. Hunting is permitted in winter. Caravan and camping facilities are available. Notable for its excellent fishing conditions, the dam is also a popular venue for swimming and boating.
