It is about 10 km from God's Window and a few kilometres from the Lisbon and Berlin waterfalls. Along the R532 to the north you reach Bourke's Luck potholes and the Three Rondavels viewpoint over the Blyde River canyon. The town is known for the pancakes served in the cafés on the main street and for the Graskop canyon, right next to the centre.
