Based at one of our benchmarked accommodation establishments at any of the following Route 62 travel destinations you can venture into the surrounding landscape of mountains and valleys, discovering places of interest so often missed on more hurried travels.
Route 62 runs through the semi-arid Klein Karoo and the result is a hot dry climate in summer and cold nights in winter. However rainfall in places like Montagu is very low, annually, which means you can plan hikes or other outdoor activities year-round.
