The name 'Doring' is also applied to a stretch of the Sout River, another Olifants tributary, midway through its course.[2]

Course edit

The Doring originates northeast of Ceres and joins the Olifants River near the town of Klawer as the Oudrif River after the confluence with the Koebee River. Tributaries include the Tankwa River, Riet River, Wolf River and Brandewyn River.[3]

Ecology edit

The Clanwilliam Yellowfish (Labeobarbus capensis), a local endemic species classified as Vulnerable by the IUCN, is found in the Doring and other rivers of its basin.[4]
