Verified reviewgood

Sterkstroom is definitely an underestimated place. I only drove through en route to East London but was impressed by the quaint (though "delapidated" buildings). The town has an atmosphere of its own. It can be developed if someone decides to do so. I was also impressed by the excellent condition of the steam locomotive that's displayed on the Queenstown side of Sterkstroom. If the road from Molteno can be upgraded it would also attract visitors to the town. On that route one would also pass the Dorper Wind farm. There is definitely some potential here.
