Sutherland Map

Map of Sutherland, Northern Cape

Sutherland detail and street level map showing landmarks of Sutherland and the location of the South African Atronomical Observatory. Almost 120 kilometres due north of Matjiesfontein in the Roggeveld of the Karoo, Sutherland is a space of clear, dark night skies. It's where one can marvel at the star scapes that sweep the outer limits, and where astronomers come to use the telescopes of the South African Astronomical Observatory. To find out more see Sutherland Attractions.
