Brandvlei, 170km north of Calvinia, lies next to a 'vlei' (marsh) alongside the Sak River. In 1961 the town was granted municipal status and in the same year a flash flood split the town in two. The town was carefully rebuilt and today it is a typical peaceful and hospitable 'platteland' (country) town. This is saltpan country, and apart from sheep farming, Brandvlei is also the home of SALTCOR, one of the country's largest private salt producers, exporting worldwide.
