 Ladismith
Ladismith lies along Route 62, 300km east from Cape Town and 100km west from Oudtshoorn. Ladismith is famous for, amongst other things, Towerkop, the split mountain peak which looms over the town, Stanleys Light and the Royal Hotel. Towerkop Mountain Peak (2189m) looms above Ladismith. Local legend has it that a witch, flying overhead, struck the peak in anger with her wand because it obstructed her passage over the mountain. Her anger resulted in Towerkops unique appearance - the peak is split in two. These two peaks are called the Pinnacles. Photo & text courtsey of Northern Cape Tourism Authority (NCTA)
