Upper Karoo is located in the Northern Cape Province of South Africa and is known for its wide open spaces and the beautiful Karoo scenery after the rains. Upper Karoo towns include Colesberg, Calvinia, De Aar, Fraserburg, Gariep Dam, Hanover, Orania and Sutherland.
Upper Karoo attractions include various nature reserves and Tankwa-Karoo National Park which hosts the AfrikaBurn Festival which is similar to Burning Man in the USA. Enjoy stargazing without the competing city lights.
