Twaalf Redes om Lekker Graaff-Reinet-Verblyf te Bespreek
Hieronder is 12 redes waarom jy nodig het om lekker Graaff-Reinet-verblyf te bespreek eerder as om net ’n dag in die pragtige Groot-Karoo-dorpie deur te bring.
Daar is net te veel plekke om te besoek, dinge om te doen en besienswaardighede om te sien vir een dag in Graaff-Reinet. As jy lekker verblyf het soos beskikbaar by KarooRus, sal jy sentraal geleë wees en dus meer plekke te voet kan besoek sonder om ver te moet gaan.
Graaff-Reinet is een van die oudste dorpe in die land en met meer as 220 historiese besienswaardighede en geboue is dit bykans onmoontlik om alles in een dag te kan besoek.
As jy lekker Karoo-skaapkerrie wil eet is Graaff-Reinet die dorp om te besoek. Dan is daar ook nog die tradisionele koeksisters, ystervarkies, konfyttertjies, bobotie en heelwat boerekosse om te geniet. Lekker eet is sinoniem met die dorpie se talle klein eetplekkies.
Met die dorp omring deur die baie bekende Kamdeboo Nasionale Park is jy in ’n paradys gevul met wildlewe en wonderskone natuur. Die Park het verskeie wandelroetes, om nie van die Vallei van Verlatenheid (Valley of Desolation) te vergeet nie. Daar sal jy besonderse rotsformasies teëkom en kan sommer in die skadu van ’n oorhangende rots piekniek hou.
Water is skaars in die Groot Karoo en des te meer rede om die reuse dam in die middel van die semi-woestyn ten volle te benut. Dit is ’n watersport-avontuurparadys en die regte plek om bietjie te gaan afkoel.
Sommer binne kort ryafstand van Graaff-Reinet is die Uilhuis wat in Nieu-Bethesda geleë is. Die beeldhou- en glaswerk wat in die tuin in binne die huis uitgestal is word dikwels in vooraanstaande reistydskrifte bespreek.
Grootste Versameling van Kaktusse
Die dorpie is ook bekend vir die kwekery met die grootste versameling van kaktusse in die Suidelike Halfrond.
Spookstories en Legendes
Soos alle ou dorpe in die Karoo het Graaff-Reinet nie ’n tekort aan sogenaamde spookstories en legendes nie. Gaan sit by een of twee dorpsmense en gesels bietjie oor al die die stories. Daar is genoeg om jou ’n hele dag besig te hou.
As jy ’n kranige fotograaf is, sal die natuurskoon, historiese geboue en kunstigheid van die dorp jou genoegsame rede bied om dae lank hier te vertoef. Dus is dit ’n goeie idee om liefs ’n paar dae van lekker verblyf te bespreek en so genoeg tyd te laat om foto’s te kan neem.
Is jy ’n kunsliefhebber? Besoek die museums en kunsgalerye in Graaff-Reinet waar jy van die bekendste en onbekendste kunstenaars van die land se werke kan beskou.
Wat is ons kultuur sonder verhoogvertonings? Met baie goeie produksies op die planke, bied die plaaslike teater jou iets uit die boonste rakke.
Dis nie net die wynlande rondom Kaapstad wat oorsese besoekers beïndruk nie. Van die beste versnitwyne kan ook in Graaff-Reinet geproe en gekoop word.
Bespreek nou lekker selfsorg en bekostigbare verblyf by ons in Graaff-Reinet en kom geniet ’n vakansie wat enig van sy soort is in hierdie juweel van ’n dorpie.

Why a Day’s Visit to Graaff-Reinet in the Great Karoo is Simply not Enough
You can now book your Graaff-Reinet accommodation online at KarooRus where you can save on accommodation costs and have the benefit of a central location in the historical town set in the Great Karoo. But, why book Graaff-Reinet accommodation, whether telephonically or online? The answer is straightforward. It is a town that has so much to offer the visitor that one day is just not enough to see and experience everything. Below are some interesting facts about Graaff-Reinet, giving you an indication why it is such a popular tourist destination in South Africa.
The town is located on the Sundays River, giving it a romantic setting in the Great Karoo. It is also the fourth oldest magisterial district in the country, which adds to its historical spirit. With over two hundred years of people coming and going, it has developed quite a unique character. From prospectors to farmers, travelling salesmen, tourists, and adventurers have roamed its streets. The town is completely surrounded by the Camdeboo National Park, giving the visitor ample opportunity to enjoy nature at its best. The Park is home to the Valley of Desolation, known for its magnificent rock formations. It is also home to numerous animal, bird, and plant species.
With well over 190 historical buildings, it is a photographer’s haven and certainly the best place to visit if you love history, Victorian buildings, arts, and antiques. Many famous people, important political figures, and even some infamous people are associated with the town. Anton Rupert, well-known South African billionaire came from Graaff-Reinet and his family played an important role in restoration of the town. Another distinguished figure, political activist Robert Sobukwe, also once called Graaff-Reinet his hometown.
Apart from 220 heritage sites, buildings, and museums, such as Graaff-Reinet House and the majestic Dutch Reformed mother church, built in the same style as the Salisbury Cathedral of Great Britain, people also find the place interesting for its oddities such as the Graaff-Reinet Club. The Club once hosted the British Cold Stream Regiment of Foot Guards. Legend has it that, at the end of the Anglo-Boer War, the Cold Stream Regiment members headed to the club to celebrate the British victory and did it with guns and bullets. They partied until late and in their happy, drunken state found it necessary to fire shots, leaving bullet holes throughout the bar.
Then there are also the many mysteries and local ghost stories that provide for some hair-raising moments and loads of humour. If ever there has been a town and place where you can reconnect with history, your roots, arts, and nature in the heart of a semi-desert, then it is Graaff-Reinet. From exhilarating nature walks in the Camdeboo to water sports at the Nqweba Dam, and fine dining, including gourmet Karoo lamb curry, will form part of your vacation.
So, come along and experience why so many people book accommodation in Graaff-Reinet online for one or two days and then decide to stay a week or longer.

Kuns in Nieu-Bethesda
Hierdie klein buurdorpie is naby Graaff-Reinet geleë en bekend vir die Uilhuis. Met stofpaaie en ’n klein bevolking lyk dit soos ’n dorp wat jy iewers al in ’n kunsfilm moes gesien het. Die Uilhuis is in Martinstraat en jy sal dit sommer maklik vind. Helen Martins se eiesoortige werke is daar te sien, maar jy kan sommer die tydjie ook gebruik om by die dorp se brouery ’n draai te gaan maak, by die boekwinkel in te loer vir leesstof, die Fossielsentrum te besoek en ietsie by die Melting Pot te eet.
Mooi geboue en nog pragtiger geboue van onskatbare historiese waarde is waaruit Graaff-Reinet bestaan. Vergeet van modernisme. In die dorp is byna elke straat histories. Die belangrikste twee strate vir historiese wandelings is Parsonage en Stretch Court. Die Reinet-huis is aan die eindpunt van Parsonage en jy sal ook John Rupert se klein teater in die straat vind.
