About Hanover

Hanover is a proper Karoo dorpie on the N1, smack between Cape Town and Joburg, so most people pass through on the long haul rather than stopping over. Colesberg, Richmond and De Aar are your nearest fuel and coffee stops, while Boston and Charlestown handle the short local trips. EV charging is thin here, so plan around Colesberg or De Aar. Fun fact: Hanover has more national monuments per person than any other town in the country.
