The pretty little railway town of Touws River, between Worcester and Laingsburg in the Karoo, lies some 185 kilometres east of Cape Town.
Touwsrivier is one of the few towns this close to Cape Town to have escaped, for the most part, the overexcited exodus of Capetonians to ‘weekend’ homes in villages within easy reach of city living - possibly because the N1 passes through it.
Calling it a ‘railway’ town is something of a misnomer however, as though it began its life as the first major staging post, locomotive depot and marshalling yard after Cape Town, its beautiful setting at the summit of the Hex River Mountain Pass belies this polluted image.
'Touws' is the Hottentot word for ‘gate’ and the town is regarded as the gateway to Great Karoo. The town is also on the national flower route, which, between July and September, is alive with the vivid shades of Karoo flowers. Touws River is also home to the Cape’s famous fynbos, succulent Karoo and rare renosterveld vegetation and its wide spaces and beautiful views make it a wonderful space in which to unwind.
Visit the Loganda pillars, used for astronomical calculations in the 1880s.

Reviews
It was amazing to enjoy the hospitality of the Touwsrivier community after a long day on the road. The food at the padstal was so good and the souvenir shop has beautiful home-made products. Highly recommended. Thank you

Had a good stay.
Loved our stay, very neat & tidy. Just the pool needs to be cleaned.
The children didn’t want to swim as a dog was swimming, not all people are animal lovers ,we had to go somewhere else to swim on all 3 days we stayed, as it was scorching hot, that was very disappointing. Hopefully when we go again we would love to enjoy the pool.
Very good service from the friendly staff. Thank you.
Exceeded our expectations. Staff very friendly. Besides that maintenance is needed everything was clean. Great stop over place, maybe two nights. Would recommend KomKyk.
Excellent service!
We enjoyed our stay. The self catering unit was clean and neat and had everything we needed - we were thankful for the pool to cool down in and the aircon when we slept. Loved seeing the goats, birds and the peacock family. Nice friendly staff. conveniently close to the padstal, ATM, petrol station. Just being close to the N1 a bit of traffic noise, but the wind through the poplar trees was soothing and lovely.
Very comforable accommodation and good value for money, but the swimming pool needs more regular attention, especially in summer.
A wonderful week of camping once again to start off 2020!!!!! Had the serenity & enjoyment of the whole camp to ourselves. Thanks to great support staff and management for your assistance and quick responses when needed. And thanks for your lovely served breakfast & dinner! We all had a fabulous time!

Touws River Reviews
Really closed to Aquila. The Area around is really amazing. In the Town you can buy everything for your Braii.
Not much to do or see there - but a neat little Town.
