The Vrederfort Dome was formed 2023 million years ago, when an asteroid the size of table mountain +- 10km in diameter and travelling at 70 000km/h hit Vrederfort.

You can clearly see the Vrederfort Dome Mountains from Skydive Parys s Drop Zone, and just imagine freefalling over the world s largest and oldest astrobleme. The Vrederfort Dome is split into two provinces by the Vaal River. The Freestate province lies on the Vaal Rivers South bank and the North West province on the North bank. Skydive Parys is found on the South Bank. The Vaal River is the largest tributary of the Orange River. The Vaal River has its source deep in the Drakensburg Mountains and it is 1 120 km in length.
