Upington Information

 

Upington is the main commercial, agricultural and educational center of the Green Kalahari and Gordonia regions in the Northern Cape Province of South Africa. This Southern Kalahari Desert town is situated within the fertile Orange River valley - A glittering green ribbon, which brings life-giving water from the Lesotho Highlands and snakes across the semi-arid Northern Cape landscape. The Orange river that flows through Upington is the result of the confluence of the Orange and Vaal rivers at the town of Douglas, approximately 300 km upstream.

 

Upington is a holiday destination with all the amenities required for the many tourists who stay or travel through it, as well as an agricultural hub for one of the most intensive sultana grape farming areas in the country. The economy of Upington relies heavily on agriculture, tourism and the services industry and many large South African companies dealing with wine, table grapes, dried fruit and livestock farming have their head offices in the town.
