Kammanassie

Kammanassie rises from the Little Karoo between the Swartberg and Outeniqua ranges. Its highest summit, Mannetjiesberg, reaches nearly two thousand metres. Streams from the northern slopes flow towards the Olifants River, while those on the southern side feed the Kammanassie River. The name is commonly explained as a Khoisan expression for a mountain of water. In caves among these heights, the region's early inhabitants left paintings on the rock.
