887.88Ha Farm For Sale in Uniondale Rural

Nestled high in the majestic Kammanassie Mountains, this remarkable 887.88-hectare property (Portion 1 of Farm 113, Kerte Rivier) offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a pristine piece of one of South Africa’s most ecologically significant regions.

Located in the Western Cape, just 30 km from Uniondale and approximately 125 km from George Airport, this untouched mountain property lies between the Swartberg and Outeniqua Mountains—a true wilderness sanctuary within the heart of the Cape Fold Belt.

Natural Beauty and Geological Heritage
Formed 123–200 million years ago during the Cape Orogeny, the Kammanassie range is a geological masterpiece. Its soaring quartzite ridges, folded sedimentary layers, and deep river kloofs create breathtaking scenery. With elevations reaching up to 1,600 m, this farm offers sweeping mountain vistas and pure serenity.

Accessed via 4x4 trail or on foot from the Dwarsfontein Road, the property remains completely undeveloped, preserving its wild, natural state. No infrastructure. No disturbance. Just nature at its purest.

Biodiversity Hotspot
Bordering the Kammanassie Nature Reserve, the property forms part of both the Kammanassie Catchment Area and the Cape Floral Region Protected Area – a UNESCO World Heritage Site known as one of the six Floral Kingdoms of the world.
The vegetation is diverse and includes:
• Mountain fynbos
• Protea nitida (waboom veld)
• Spekboomveld (Portulacaria afra)
• Arid fynbos and kloof shrubland
• Afro-montane forest pockets

The Kammanassie conebush (Leucadendron singulare), found nowhere else on Earth, is endemic to this area.

Fauna and Wildlife
Wildlife roams freely across the mountain slopes and valleys. The reserve hosts:
• ±30 Cape Mountain zebra
• Kudu, grey rhebok, klipspringer, duiker, and mountain reedbuck
• Leopard sightings have been recorded in the area
• Raptors such as black eagles and jackal buzzards soar above the ridges
• Over 66 bird species and 46 butterfly species, including the rare Kammanassie Blue, contribute to this ecological treasure.

Water and Climate
Two perennial rivers, the Dwarsrivier and Notsomrivier, cross the property, feeding into the Kammanassie River. The area receives 400–600 mm of rainfall annually, with mild winters and warm summers. Crisp mountain air and pure water sources define the experience of this secluded haven.

Cultural and Historical Heritage
“Kammanassie” means “Mountain of Water” in the Khoisan language. The region is steeped in history, dotted with caves and ancient rock art sites that speak to early human life in the area. Although unexplored, the property may conceal hidden archaeological gems waiting to be discovered.
