The B1 south from Rehoboth passes through the ranching land of the Baster community, before reaching the village of Kalkrand with its Shell garage, bottle store and takeaway stand, small clinic and about 10 houses. About 20 km north of the Kalkrand, at the Duineveld Crossroads, there are number of roadside stalls where springbok skin rugs are sold by locals from Duineveld. The skins themselves are bought from commercial farmers and then stitched together and lined with karakul fur before being sold. The sale of these rugs plays an important role in the economy of the village.
