Witsand-natuurreservaat
Location of Witsand Provincial Nature Reserve in South Africa
Witsand Nature Reserve (Afrikaans: Witsand-natuurreservaat) is located in Northern Cape, South Africa, and covers 3,500 hectares. The reserve is 80 km southwest of Postmasburg and 59 km northeast of Groblershoop. The reserve is dominated by sand dunes on a plateau around 1,200 m above sea level. Singing sand can be found here, a phenomenon in which during the dry summer months, a roar can be heard while walking over the sands.
