With stunning sunsets and clear, starry nights, the Baviaans offers a taste of life at its unpoilt best. The area encompasses the World Heritage Site and Wilderness area of the Baviaanskloo f, the Karoo towns of Rietbron, Willowmore and Steytlerville and the Grootrivier Valley, and is located in the Eastern Cape Province of South Africa. Known for small stock farming and for the richness of its endemic plant species, its interesting cultural heritage and the abundance of bird and animal life, the Baviaans area holds ample opportunity for outdoor recreation. The area was once important for the cultivation of vegetable seed (onion, carrot, beetroot and pumpkin) because the mountainous isolation prevented contamination of the seed stock. Goats were also farmed for the angora goat industry and together with seed production, represented a viable economy. The construction of the Kouga Dam (or Paul Sauer Dam as it was then known) in the 1960's and early 1970's led to much land being bought out and transferred to the Department of Forestry. in 1987 the management of the area was transferred to Cape Nature Conservation and more land was bought out with private funds for the consolidation of the area. Since 1994 it has been managed by Eastern Cape Nature Conservation. The final stage will be a huge national park, hopefully without fences, where the disease-free buffalo, leopard and the rhino will once again roam free.
