East Griqualand
East Griqualand is an area of great beauty, featuring colourful, living history. Kokstad lies in the Umzimhlava River basin between Mount Currie and the Ngele Mountains.
The original town hall – built in 1910 – is a national monument, now serving as the local library. The former library – built in 1907 – is also a national monument and houses the Kokstad Museum.
The Weza State Forest runs through indig- enous forests and commercial plantations. The forest is home to several antelope species and a huge variety of birds.
