3About Leeu-Gamka
Leeu-Gamka is your classic Karoo pitstop, sitting right on the N1 between Cape Town and Joburg, where the R381 branches off to Fraserburg. Locals nip through to Beaufort West (76 km) for supplies, while road trippers heading to Prince Albert or down to Laingsburg often break their journey here. Long hauls to spots like Kylemore or Elgin show it's a proper waypoint town. Fuel up when you can, EV charging is thin on this stretch, and don't miss that the name literally means "lion of the Gamka," after the river that once lured big cats to this dry stretch of Karoo.
