The Sandveld region in the Free State is largely covered by the Sandveld Nature Reserve and the Bloemhof Dam. The area consists largely of farming communities with Potato production as their main economic activity. The Sandveld Nature Reserve is considered the Free States main birding spot, but other game like rhino, giraffe, buffalo, blue wildebeest and Zebra's can be found here. The area was named after its mostly sandy soils and savanna.
