Fodor's Review:
This huge meteorite crater was formed about 220,000 years ago. Today it's home to 340 bird species and even more plant species. Browse through the crater's ecomuseum (guided or unguided) to learn more about the area or explore an Ndebele cultural village. A three-hour guided tour (R80 a guide) includes a walk to the crater.
- Cost: R15
