Clarens started out as a small village in 1912, named after a beautiful village in Switzerland where President Paul Kruger went into voluntary exile when the 1900 Boer war turned against the boers, and after the British victory he refused to return home.
Clarens is a mountainous village, rich in historical Boer War sites, as well as offering the best in local history at the Clarens Museum. You will also be able to find Bushmen paintings scattered in the surrounding sandstone cliffs that are well worth exploring.
