From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
De Rust is a small village at the gateway to the Little Karoo.
De Rust is located at the foot of the Swartberg Mountain range between Oudtshoorn and Beaufort West. De Rust is also know for the Meandering Pass named Meirings Poort.
Meiringspoort is a gateway that connects the Little Karoo and the Karoo through a gorge with a 25 km road crossing the same river 25 times in the span of the 25 km.
This area is also well known for Ostrich farming and most of the farmers in the area either farms exclusively with ostriches or as a sideline to their existing farming.
