Overview
3About Phomolong
Phomolong is a Free State goldfields town just outside Hennenman, hugging the N1 and R70 routes that link it to Welkom, Virginia, and Odendaalsrus. Locals nip between these towns daily, while longer hauls come in from places like Upington and Barkly East. Welkom Airport is 52 km off if you're flying in. There's one fast EV charger nearby, handy on the goldfields run. The town itself started as housing for Hennenman's mineworkers, and the old grid layout still shows it.
