Hanover
Almost equidistant between Johannesburg and Cape Town, Hanover is a popular place to overnight on the long journey along the N1 highway linking these two major South African cities. Hanover, in common with many Karoo towns and villages, is however deserving of more than just an overnight stop. The village nestles on the open plains of the Bo Karoo, or Upper Karoo, beneath Trappieskop, a typical Karoo koppie that dominates the view towards the west.
