Piketberg is a rural and farming town situated at the foot of Piketberg mountain range and lies within the Western Cape province, situated just 2 hours drive from Cape Town. The hotter areas around the mountains are suited to growing wheat, while the cooler areas on top of the mountains are used for fruit and Rooibos tea growing. The area was first inhabited by the San, with rock art still marking the surrounding areas.

“Piketberg is a town 130 km north of Cape Town in the Namakwaland district. It was laid out in 1835 on the farm Grootfontein at the foot of the Piketberg. and named after the mountain. From 1672 to 1676 military guards (piquet or piket) were posted there to protect settlers against marauding Khoikhoi bands under chief Gonnema.” - Chris Smit, 2024/08/24
