Location: South Africa » Free State » Transgariep Transgariep Semideser in the Free State Transgariep is the vast, outstretched landscape that lies in the southern tip of the Free State. Its semi-desert vegetation of grass, shrubs, karoobossies and mesembryanthemums covers the hills and vales, and epitomises the wild and free spirit of this land. The Orange River forms the natural boundary in the south. This country is unspoilt, unpolluted and sparsely populated. The quaint, small towns are clean, and harbours the friendliest people, who are always ready to welcome visitors, whether they are from South Africa or abroad. Jagersfontein - a diamond town of days gone by. Jagersfontein has the largest man-made diamond-hole in South Africa and the 971-carat Excelsior diamond found here, is one of the largest diamonds found in South Africa. The hole is open for visitors. The Roman Catholic Church, built in 1881, is another of the places worth seeing, as is the Open Mine Museum and Look-out Post, the Jagers Mining Village and the original water pumps in the streets. Koffiefontein's Bird Park, featuring indigenous and imported species, and the De Beers Open Mine, as well as the Open Air Museum at the entrance of Koffiefontein, is worth the trip.
