Zwartberg View Mountain Lodge is a mountain lodge in De Rust road, Oudtshoorn.
Location
The property is at Vergelegen Road, off the N12 between Oudtshoorn and De Rust. Oudtshoorn lies inland in the Klein Karoo, between the Outeniqua and Swartberg mountains, and is the driest and hottest of the destinations covered here. The town grew wealthy on ostrich feathers and still farms them; the Cango Caves and the Swartberg Pass are north of town, and George and the coast are about an hour south over the Outeniqua Pass.
Oudtshoorn is inland, about an hour north of George over the Outeniqua Pass, and roughly five hours from Cape Town by road on the N1 and R62. George Airport is the nearest airport. A car is essential, as the caves, the passes and the farms are all outside town. Our Oudtshoorn destination guide covers the area in more detail.
