About Leipoldtville

Leipoldtville, a very small historical town, ideally situated to use as a base or stay over from where to explore the surrounding West Coast towns.

Northeast of Elands Bay en route to Graafwater, lies the quaint village of Leipoldtville next to the Langvleirivier. The town was established in 1905 when a new Dutch Reformed congregation came into being. Leipoldtville was named after Reverend Friederich Leipoldt, the then minister at Clanwilliam and father of physician, poet and author, C Louis Leipoldt.

Leipoldtville is in the heart of the 'Sandveld', one of the main potato producing areas in South Africa and the region is popular for its challenging 4x4 trails.
