From Wikipedia, the free encyclopaedia
Kaapsehoop is a town in the Mpumalanga province (formerly Eastern Transvaal) of South Africa. It is situated 1486 m (4878 ft.) above sea level on the Highveld escarpment, about 25 km from Nelspruit, the capital of Mpumalanga. The name of the town is no doubt derived from the fact that when gold was discovered in the town, the find created hope for the early inhabitants of the geographically nearby De Kaap Valley – The Cape Valley – of attaining great wealth.
Kaapsehoop is set out between large natural clearings in the rock fields near the top of the escarpment overlooking the lush De Kaap Valley situated some 800 metres below, with distant views towards Barberton and Nelspruit.
The horses are wild and live in and around the Kaapsehoop village.
The Photographic Journey of bulldog. 
Not THAT wild if they stood for the photos? Read about your awesome town in books by TV Bulpin. Wish I had time to visit it. Great photos of beautiful animals.
What a pleasure to look at 🙂 As you know I love horses 😀
These horses are all so beautiful. You managed to capture a really nice selection of colors from within the herd. My only complaint with the video, is that there were no English sub-captions, so I was clueless as to what the narrators were saying, but the horses sure were a delight to watch. 🙂
The video was added by eldinsmille I loved it as well and felt the same as you I would have loved to hear the commentary.
Hey Rob, my farm was just below this in the De Kaap valley and went to Kaapsehoop many times. Lovely up there it was.
I was there so often Spook, one of my favourite places, the owners of the pancake den used to visit with Linda at hers in Lydenburg so we sort of had a great relationship with them. My one grandson got married there as well last year its a great place I agree.
I just love these horse photos!
Thanks very much they look so tame, and you want to stroke them you just can’t get close enough.
What a beautiful horses… Great photographs you captured dear Rob, Thank you, with my love, nia
Thanks so much nia, i love horses.
Beautiful and well fed it looks like.
There is so much grass up there and very little competition, all for the horses.
They’re beautiful! I love horses 🙂 They remind me of our Brumbies. Are they subjected to the same culling and arguments about whether they should be allowed to continue to live or not?
Not at all they ranger over an are of 30 000ha and their numbers stay fairly static which is wonderful.
In Bosnia and Herzegovina, there is wild horses too.
On several locations.
I enjoyed the video just sorry it did not have subtitles would have loved to understand what they were saying.
