Langkloof - Geography

Geography

On its north side the Langkloof is bounded by the Kammanassie and Kouga Mountains, and on its south by the Langkloof, Tsitsikamma and Kareedouw Mountains. A low range of hills running parallel to the Langkloof and lying inside it, divides the kloof into northern and southern sections. The southern section is called the Klein Langkloof and is the main apple-growing area. The valley is crossed by numerous streams that arise in the Tsitsikamma Mountains and join the Kammanassie and Kouga Rivers. The road down the Kloof passes through the hamlets and towns of Avontuur, Haarlem, Misgund, Louterwater, Krakeel, Joubertina, Kareedouw and Assegaaibos.
