Kestell

Kestell, Free State, sit mos right where the flatland starts climbing into the Maluti foothills, easy reach off the N5 via the R711 or R712. Handy for quick runs to Phuthaditjhaba, Bethlehem or Harrismith, and Harrismith Airport is your closest flight option, 56 km out. Long-haul visitors pitch up from as far as Bhongweni and even Katberg, so it's clearly a stop on the Drakensberg and Lesotho route. Charge your EV before you get here, options are thin. Look out for the old sandstone church, built from stone quarried right there in the hills.
