10 reasons why you should explore the Golden Gate Highlands National Park

Located at the foothills of the Maluti Mountains in the Free State Province of South Africa, the Golden Gate Highlands National Park gets its name from Park’s sandstone cliffs, most notably the Brandwag rock.

If you’re travelling through the Free State, here are 10 reasons why you should explore the Golden Gate Highlands National Park.
