Tswaing Meteorite Crater

Tswaing Meteorite Crater is one of the world’s best-preserved meteorite impact craters, formed about 220,000 years ago when a stony meteorite struck the Earth. The 1.4-kilometre-wide crater contains a saline lake and is surrounded by wetlands, indigenous vegetation and diverse wildlife. Visitors can explore the crater trail, museum displays, natural landscapes and birdlife within the conservation area.
