Map of Sutherland, Northern Cape
Sutherland detail and street level map showing landmarks of Sutherland and the location of the South African Atronomical Observatory. Almost 120 kilometres due north of Matjiesfontein in the Roggeveld of the Karoo, Sutherland is a space of clear, dark night skies. It's where one can marvel at the star scapes that sweep the outer limits, and where astronomers come to use the telescopes of the South African Astronomical Observatory. To find out more see Sutherland Attractions.
If you are interested in overnighting in the area, we can recommend some great accommodation options including hotels, guest houses and self-catering properties. If you're only planning on driving through Sutherland, en-route to another destination, you may want to peruse our Sutherland Restaurants before you leave to see if you should plan a stop here for lunch or maybe just a coffee. Also check out Sutherland Things To Do to see if there are any activities for which you would consider stopping.
