Name: Louterwater
The Langkloof fruit region is located between Port Elizabeth and George. After the Western Cape Province, Langkloof is the second largest deciduous fruit-producing area in South Africa. Its fertility is visible as most of the valley is lined with fruit orchards, with beautiful mountains and perennial streams as a backdrop. The road down the Kloof passes through various rural fruit growing and dispatch centers like Avontuur, Haarlem, Misgund, Louterwater, Krakeel, Joubertina, Kareedouw and Assegaaibos. After Assegaaibos the road links up with the N2 to Port Elizabeth. The ‘Apple Express’ runs through the Long Kloof, linking all these villages and towns.
Kareedouw is the operational centre for the municipality, and Joubertina is the business centre for the agricultural industry.
