\u2018n Uitsig oor die vlakte by die Magersfonteinkoppie.<\/div>\n

Vanaf die uitkykpunt oor die vlakte waar die Slag van Magersfontein plaasgevind het, kan bykans enige Suid-Afrikaner hom die versugtinge van \u2019n voorsaat oor die wye vlakte verbeel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dit is hier, met loopgrawe uit Desember 1899 soos letsels om die koppie, waar soldate van verskillende bevolkingsgroepe en vanuit uiteenlopende w\u00earelddele, se bloed vergiet is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
Op hierdie vlakte het die veldslag op 11 Desember 1899 \u2013 \u2019n beroemde oorwinning vir boeremagte en \u201ca tremendous shock for the British Empire\u201d soos deur toergids Frank Higgo beskryf \u2013 plaasgevind.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Dit was deel van opeenvolgende nederlae wat die Britse magte tydens die Tweede Vryheidsoorlog gely het, en was in Brittanje as die Swart Week bekend. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die veldslag in di\u00e9 oorlog, ook genoem die Anglo-Boereoorlog of die Suid-Afrikaanse oorlog wat van Oktober 1899 tot Mei 1902 geduur het, was \u2019n direkte gevolg van die Beleg van Kimberley, waar boeremagte Kimberley beset het. Die Britse magte het gepoog om dit te ontset en veral die spoorverbinding te herstel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die loopgrawe wat die boeremagte aan die voet van die Magersfonteinkoppie gegrawe het, het aan hulle die oorwinning besorg. Die Britte het geglo dat hul vyandelike magte die koppie beset, terwyl hulle aan die voet daarvan in loopgrawe ingegrawe was. Die loopgrawe se ligging en dat dit goed gekamoefleer was, het tot die boeremagte se oorwinning bygedra. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die Britse magte het die Magersfonteinkoppie net n\u00e1 middernag begin nader. Hoewel die nag versmorend warm begin het, het \u2019n storm met weerlig, donderweer en swaar re\u00ebn tydens die opmars uitgebreek. In pikdonkerte het die soldate oor nat klippe, plante, miershope en ongelyke grond voortgestrompel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vandat die eerste skote uit die loopgrawe gevuur is, het verwarring glo by die marsende soldate geheers. Binne die eerste sewe minute was daar aldus britishbattles.com ongeveer 700 gewondes of gesneuweldes onder die Highland Brigade, wat toe nog steeds in nabye ligging was en nie oor die vlakte uitgesprei nie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die aanloop tot di\u00e9 bloedige veldslag word duidelik op die inligtingsbord by die uitkykpunt aangedui, terwyl die verloop en meer inligting in die Magersfontein-museum uiteengesit is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volgens die inligtingstukke in die museum het Boer en Brit met die uitbreek van die oorlog ingestem om nie swartmense by die oorlog te betrek nie, maar met verloop het albei magte al meer op swart- en bruinmense as onder meer soldate, arbeiders, wa-drywers, wagte, agterryers en verkenners gesteun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wees \u2019n toeris, al is dit vir \u2019n dag lank<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Reis plaaslik; leer ken jou omgewing, het Abraham Vosloo, die Noord-Kaapse LUR van ekonomiese ontwikkeling en toerisme, onlangs tydens die bekendstellingsgeleentheid van vanjaar se Toerismemaand ges\u00ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Di\u00e9 geleentheid is by die Magersfontein-terrein aangebied, knus langs die slagveld, museum, restaurant en pas opgeknapte gastehuis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volgens Vosloo is korter wegbreekgeleenthede en selfs daguitstappies in eie omgewing deel van die toerismebedryf oor die w\u00eareld heen se poging om di\u00e9 bedryf n\u00e1 die hewige impak van die Covid-19-pandemie te herstel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Statistieke toon aan dat daguitstappies in Suid-Afrika tydens die 2021-\u201922-boekjaar met 50% gegroei het, s\u00ea hy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hy moedig die publiek aan om hul eie omgewing te verken, en plaaslike ondernemings en instellings in die toerismebedryf te ondersteun. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\u201cOntdek die markte, padstalle, museums, natuurreservate, nasionale parke en al die kultuur- en avontuur-belewenisse wat die Noord-Kaap bied.\u201d<\/div>\n
Abraham Vosloo<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Vir diegene in die toerismebedryf was sy raad om produkte en dienste te diversifiseer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vosloo s\u00ea hoewel die getal besoekers aan die Noord-Kaap toegeneem het, voorspel die United Nations World Tourism Organisation dat die bedryf oor die w\u00eareld heen eers teen 2024 sal herstel het tot waar dit in 2019 was. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die verskeidenheid wat die Noord-Kaap as toerismebestemming bied, is ook beklemtoon, soos onder meer die 300 km-lange kuslyn, vyf nasionale parke, sewe provinsiale natuurreservate en vyf unieke toerisme-streke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die Noord-Kaap raak ook al meer bekend as \u2019n bestemming vir avontuur en ekstreme sportbelewenisse, soos die Kalahari Augrabies Extreme Marathon van 250 km.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cElke besoeker kan \u2019n toerisme-ambassadeur vir die Noord-Kaap word. Deel jou foto\u2019s en belewenisse,\u201d het Vosloo afgesluit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Martha van Schalkwyk, wat al meer as 25 jaar die Magersfontein-restaurant bedryf, is wyd bekend vir haar kookkuns. <\/div>\n

Soos ouma dit gemaak het<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Die Magersfontein-kompleks, deel van die McGregor-museum, is net meer as \u2019n halfuur se ry vanaf Kimberley op die N12 in \u2019n suidelike rigting, en bied \u2019n ideale dag- of selfs naweekuitstappie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die minder as 6 km grondpad net voor die museum-kompleks hoef besoekers nie af te skrik nie aangesien dit so gereeld moontlik geskraap word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Behalwe die uitkykpunt, verskeie gedenktekens, museum en braaigeriewe vir dagbesoekers, kan besoekers met voorafbespreking in die Bagpipe Lodge tuisgaan wat pas deur die departement van ekonomiese ontwikkeling en toerisme opgeknap is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dit bied drie slaapkamers, twee badkamers en \u2019n oopplan kombuis en sitkamer vir ses persone aan, asook \u2019n buitebraai-area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Di\u00e9 huis is in 2002 in \u2019n gastehuis verander n\u00e1 dit vir jare as die huis van die museumbestuurder gedien het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Besoekers kan selfs so gelukkig wees om een van die ongeveer 40 geharde Tankwa-bokke te sien wat op die klipkoppe by Magersfontein hervestig is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die bokke, wat in Februarie 2016 hier losgelaat is, is vanaf die Tankwa-Karoo- Nasionale Park na Magersfontein gebring. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In die Tankwa het hulle oor dekades heen afgesonder en wild geraak, en in \u2019n boksoort ontwikkel wat groter en swaarder is, maar wat ideaal in die habitat by Magersfontein aanpas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beslis \u2019n besoek werd is die Magersfontein-restaurant waar Martha van Schalkwyk vir meer as 25 jaar reeds onder meer tuisgekookte etes voorsit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Van Schalkwyk het op die plaas Voetpansdrift binne stapafstand van Magersfontein grootgeword en vertel dat sy nog haar lewe lank hier betrokke is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gedurende die week bedien sy, met die hulp van gesinslede, ligte etes en ook haar beroemde melktert, wortelkoek, koeksisters en soms sjokoladekoek. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
Die Sondagmiddagetes, waarvoor besprekings nodig is, vul besoekers met nostalgie omdat dit geregte is \u201csoos wat my ouma gemaak het\u201d.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

In die nabye omgewing van die Magersfontein-museum is gedenktekens vir verskeie magte opgerig, onder meer die Burger-monument. Ook in die omgewing is die Magersfontein Memorial Gholf Estate, Ritchie (met onder meer \u2019n bierbrouery), Jacobsdal (met \u2019n koffiewinkel), die Mokala- Nasionale Park en Hopetown (met \u2019n padstal en koffiewinkel net voor die dorp). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of \u2019n mens in geskiedenis belangstel of nie, is dit steeds die moeite werd om vanuit die uitkykpunt oor die vlakte te tuur, en te hoor hoe die wind oor die koppie suis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die wat weet s\u00ea \u2019n mens sal sommige nagte by Magersfontein die droewige klank van \u2019n doedelsak hoor; of die swaaiende ligte van di\u00e9 wat \u2019n gewonde op \u2019n draagbaar dra; of \u2019n eensame lig wat soos \u2019n verlore siel oor die vlakte dwaal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
