Situated in the Thabo Mofutsanyana district, Clocolan offers 1 campsite. Thabo Mofutsanyana is a district located in the eastern region of the Free State province. The landscape is dominated by the dramatic peaks and basalt cliffs of the northern Drakensberg mountains, which descend into high-altitude grasslands and rolling agricultural plains. The regional economy is primarily supported by commercial farming, focusing on livestock and grain production, alongside a well-established tourism sector. The environment features deep mountain passes, natural springs, and extensive wilderness areas. These geographic attributes provide accessible environments for hiking, mountain biking, and exploring scenic routes through the rugged terrain of the eastern highlands.
The Free State offers a sprawling, open landscape that is highly suited for both tent and caravan camping. The central and western regions are characterised by wide grassy plains and semi-desert conditions, providing clear night skies and remote off-grid sites. To the east, the terrain transforms into the foothills of the Maluti Mountains, where campers can pitch tents beneath large sandstone cliffs. The province is bordered by two large waterways, the Vaal and Orange rivers, which support numerous waterside caravan parks and fishing camps. Campers should prepare for significant seasonal changes, as the region experiences hot summer days and dry, freezing winters with widespread frost. This expansive geography provides a peaceful environment for nature walks, river fishing, and setting up camp under broad horizons.
