The Cango Caves, located just outside of Oudtshoorn in the Western Cape, are one of South Africa’s most famous natural wonders. These spectacular limestone caves, formed over millions of years, are renowned for their impressive stalactites and stalagmites, along with their vast, cavernous chambers. The caves stretch for over four kilometers and offer guided tours that explore different sections, with varying levels of difficulty and depth, providing visitors with the chance to see the incredible rock formations up close.
The Cango Caves have been a significant site for both historical and geological study, with evidence of early human habitation dating back thousands of years. Visitors can choose between the Standard Tour, which takes in the most accessible parts of the cave, or the more adventurous Adventure Tour, which involves crawling through narrow tunnels and scaling tight passageways for a deeper exploration. The caves, with their dramatic beauty and fascinating history, continue to be a must-visit destination in the Garden Route region.
