Karoo Journey: Night-time in Camdeboo National Park
The next stop on Scott Ramsay's Karoo road trip for Wild was the Camdeboo National Park. This little protected area – whose name means “valley of green” in the ancient Khoe language – surrounds the historical town of Graaff-Reinet, a place that has more national monuments than any other in the country – remarkable for such a small town in the middle of nowhere!
