B&B and self-catering lodge on the Orange River. Clay pigeon shooting, hunting and fly-fishing.
The Glasgow Pont Hotel is a historical site, situated on the border between the Northern Cape, Eastern Cape and the Free State provinces. The hotel was established in 1856 to accommodate the numerous Trekkers passing through from Colesberg into the Free State, to escape the British imperialism. It has been serving trans-Orange travellers for more than 150 years at this important junction.
The settlement lies some 40 km east-north-east of Colesberg and 43 km west-north-west of Venterstad, on the southern bank of the Orange River, just below the Gariep Dam.
