Winterkoek Mountain

The Groot Winterhoek mountains rise north of the Tulbagh valley in the southwestern Cape. Their rugged sandstone heights support mountain fynbos and give rise to streams that flow towards the surrounding valleys. In hollows and shelters among the rocks are paintings left by San and Khoekhoe inhabitants. These mountains form part of the folded ranges that stand between the Cape's coastal plains and the inland country of the Bokkeveld.
