About Prince Albert

Prince Albert is a hidden gem of the Great Karoo, a perfectly preserved Victorian village at the foot of the Swartberg Pass. Known for its starlit skies, excellent restaurants, and thriving arts community, this tranquil town offers farm stays, hiking, and the spectacular Swartberg Pass to Oudtshoorn. Local produce includes olives, dried fruit, and Karoo lamb, while the village atmosphere invites long, lazy stays.
