Bucklands is about 47 km from the pleasant Karoo town of Steytlerville. Early pioneers and hunters who came up from the Cape in their wagons frequented this historical region, which forms the southern reaches of the Plains of Camdeboo. They came in search of a new life and ivory. They established farms in the valley flanked by the Baviaans and Grootrivier Hoogte that you can visit today. The climate is typically Karoo, dry and healthy with hot days and cold nights.

Activities include bird watching, game drives, exploring age-old San paintings, scenic walks, horse riding, and mountain bike routes.
