“There is magic in the air of Wakkerstroom. It either gets to you or it passes you by”
Brenda Carter – long time resident.
Make Wakkerstroom your preferred destination for a country breakaway characterized by excellence in hospitality, a magnificent unspoilt environment and a variety of experiences for everyone.
Nestled in a beautiful valley surrounded by the Versamel Mountains, lying in the unique South African Grassland Biome, and the source of the Vaal, Usuthu, Phongolo and Thukela rivers, is the Jewel of Mpumalanga, the village of Wakkerstroom, a must visit destination when exploring South Africa.
Just 3 hours from Johannesburg and Pretoria, 4 ½ hours from Durban, or the perfect stopover en route to or from Kwa-Zulu Natal or the Kruger National Park.
Your first visit will definitely not be your last.
Come and experience the magic of Wakkerstroom.
