About Citrusdal
Citrusdal features natural hot springs that provide warm waters for relaxation and health benefits. The area includes citrus orchards and access to the Cederberg mountains for outdoor exploration. Visitors enjoy the town's rural atmosphere and nearby trails, making it suitable for a peaceful stay.
Citrusdal is a small town in the Western Cape, approximately 170 kilometres north of Cape Town. It lies along the Olifants River and has a history tied to agriculture, particularly citrus farming which dates back to the early 20th century. The town developed around these farms and the need for irrigation from the river. Local economy relies on fruit production and tourism, with the landscape shaped by rugged hills and valleys.
The Citrusdal Hot Springs are a key draw, offering mineral-rich waters heated by geothermal activity. These springs have pools maintained at around 40 degrees Celsius, used for bathing and therapy. Nearby, the Cederberg region includes sites with ancient San rock paintings, some over 6,000 years old, preserved in sandstone formations. The area also has farms where visitors can see citrus varieties like oranges and lemons being grown and harvested.
Hiking paths in the Cederberg provide routes of varying difficulty, leading to viewpoints and waterfalls. Driving tours often cover distances up to 50 kilometres from the town centre to reach these spots. Birdwatching is popular in the riverine areas. Citrusdal accommodation ranges from guesthouses to self-catering cottages, allowing travellers to choose based on their needs for the stay.
Wildlife in the surrounding mountains includes species such as dassies and klipspringers, adding to the natural appeal. The town's annual citrus festival in winter highlights local produce through markets and events, drawing regional visitors.
