Area Info

Kathu lies in the middle of the Kalahari Desert. It's a mining town that lies strategically alongside the N14 between Kuruman and Upington, and three hours away from Kimberley, to which it is connected by road, rail and air.

There are two reasons why you might visit the rather remote and dusty town of Kathu. One is to marvel at the huge open iron ore mine - Kathu has one of the five largest iron ore mines in the world. And the other is the incredible forest of camel thorn trees, Acacia erioloba, one of only two in the world (the other lies between Mariental and Reboboth in Namibia) that endows the town with 4000 hectares of trees that form a reserve registered as a Natural Heritage Site.

There is a third reason that visitors come to Kathu. It boasts one of the country's most beautiful golf courses, part of it lying within the camel thorn forest on the edge of the desert. Rated as one of the top 20 golf courses in the country, the 18-hole course hosts the annual Kalahari Classic and the 2nd stop on the winter leg of the Vodacom Southern African Tour.
