Riemvasmaak, Northern Cape

Close to the Namibian border, secluded between the Orange River and the dry Molopo River, Riemvasmaak covers an expanse of striking mountains, desert plains and miles of wilderness.

A wilderness born from violent volcanic activity millions of years ago, Riemvasmaak offers a variety of activities and breath-taking, rugged beauty. A popular attraction, the Riemvasmaak Hot Springs invite visitors to relax in the natural wonder of therapeutic waters surrounded by 80m high granite cliffs.

Aside from the natural hot springs, visitors are drawn to the unique vegetation, variety of wildlife canoeing on the Orange River, and the abundance of 4x4 and scenic hiking trails.

Accommodation at the hot springs is in comfortable 8-bed or 4-bed chalets, all blending into the background with spectacular views over the granite canyon. Each chalet has a kitchenette, toilet, cold shower, washbasin and braai area.
