Tandjies Mountains

The Tandjiesberg forms part of the Sneeuberg mountain country on the edge of the Great Karoo. Its jagged heights rise above the Camdeboo plains near Graaff-Reinet, among a chain of ridges that extends eastwards towards the Bankberg. Mountain grassland shares the slopes with plants of the Karoo and neighbouring regions. The range belongs to the Great Escarpment, where the high interior gives way to lower country to the south.
