The town itself is full of natural beauty, and it is for this reason that it’s worth a visit. Watersports and fishing can be enjoyed at the Maden and Rooikrans Dams and it serves a great base for those brave enough to attempt the Amatola Hiking Trail (100km long) being only 22 km from its start.
Back in the early 1900’s a hippo decided to ‘take a walk’ and ended up trekking for over 1500 km across KwaZulu Natal all the way down to the Eastern Cape. This hippo legend was named Huberta (Forest Gump would have suited him fine too!). One of the museums of this quite little town is home to Huberta’s body.
