West Rand
The West Rand of Gauteng borders on the North-West Province and stretches north-north-west from Johannesburg’s Northern Suburbs (Sandton and Randburg) to the ancient Magaliesberg foothills, and west from Soweto and Roodepoort to the mining town of Carletonville. The main town in this area is Krugersdorp, and much of the region between JHB and Krugersdorp consists of farms, grazing land, small nature reserves and country developments.
