CONCORDIA


Orbicule - Concordia
The Orbicule Koppie due west of Concordia exhibits the best examples of orbicular diorite in the country. This rare rock type was previously only found in outcrops in Scandinavia. The koppie provides beautiful views over the 'vlaktes' and this picnic site can be reached via a clearly marked gravel road.

Concordia is one of a number of mission stations still operating in Namaqualand. These stations, with their peaceful atmosphere, serve as a precious part of the heritage left by intrepid people from many different countries and religions who where thoroughly dedicated to their beliefs.
