Course
The source of the 250 kilometres (160 mi) long Sundays River is in the Compassberg Mountains (the highest mountains in the former Cape Province) near Nieu-Bethesda. The river then flows in a general southsoutheasterly direction, passing the town Graaff-Reinet in the Karoo before winding its way through the Zuurberg Mountains and then past Kirkwood and Addo in the fertile Sundays River Valley. It empties into the Indian Ocean at Algoa Bay after running through the village of Colchester, 40 km east of the city of Port Elizabeth.
