Anysberg nature reserve

The Anysberg Nature Reserve of 62,500 ha is situated in the western Klein Karoo region. The central mountain is named after Anise, Pimpinella anisum, a plant which is found here. The reserve was established in 1988 to conserve Succulent and Fynbos flora in the Cape Fold Belt, and to reintroduce game that formerly occurred here.  There are 2 Ericas found here known to only grow in this mountain range. Animals found here include Baboons, Leopards, Caracal, Klipspringer, and Cape Grysbok, among others. Anysberg Nature Reserve is located between the towns of Ladismith, Laingsburg, Touwsrivier, and Montagu.

Anysberg Horse Trail is a two-day trail in the reserve and is an adventure of a lifetime. A reserve ranger will teach you the basics. You will see a variety of plants, and birdlife, as well as interesting rock art
