The mountain range is made up of low mountains primarily composed of Table Mountain Sandstone. It is a mountain range, which stands alone, an island bordered by only three towns – Aurora to the West, Redelinghuys to the North and Piketberg on its Eastern slopes. It is accessed by the Versfeld Pass.[1]
