About Excelsior

Excelsior is a Free State farming dorp, surrounded by maize and sunflower lands. It's a quick run to Verkeerdevlei (33 km) or Tweespruit (35 km) for daily errands, while Winburg, Marquard and Thaba 'Nchu (all around 55-60 km) make for a proper Saturday outing. Thaba Nchu Tar Airport is 68 km off if you're flying in. No EV chargers here, so fill up before you arrive, and look out for the grain silo, you'll spot it long before you hit town.
