Marydale

76km northwest of Prieska along the N10.

Developed as a church town in 1903, Marydale was named after the wife of Mr GP Snyman, owner of the farm on which the town was laid out.
20 km east is the deserted mine town of Koegas (where blue asbestos was once mined), surrounded by mountains and quiver trees.
