Getting guests floating on air is the idea at Rocky Drift Private Nature Reserve, a laidback site within a 257-hectare valley on the Waterval Boven-Nelspruit Road, in the district around the town of Waterval Boven. This park next to the Joubert Spruit river – for roams along the banks and paddles in the water – is a serene spot for unwinding and also has its own natural supply of fresh H2O sourced straight from the mountaintops. Other watery-themed things to see in the Mpumalanga area include the 70-metre-high Elands River Falls, a national monument accessible through a tunnel a five-minute drive from Rocky Drift Private Nature Reserve (you might want to pack a torch for explores here). Rock climbing around this area – in the famed Drakensberg Mountains at the foot of the South Hills – is said to be some of the best in South Africa too. If you fancy roving the reserve in search of animals instead, look out for local creatures including baboons, monkeys, leopards and rock pythons, or look to the skies for birds including black eagles, steppe buzzards, kites and falcons. Back on the site, campfires and barbecues are permitted, so pick up produce from one of the grocery shops in Waterval Boven (a 15-minute drive away) and cook up a meal to munch on while shading yourself from the sun under the native trees dotted around the site.

Lokale attraksjoner

Hiking trips are some of the main highlights around Waterval Boven, with trails like the winding Elangeni along the Elands River within 10 minutes’ drive; other local paths include those around the Blaauboschkraal stone ruins, sometimes referred to as Africa’s answer to Stonehenge (35 minutes away). Learn about the region’s ancient past with guided tours of the Stone Circle Museum (which also has a bistro, bar and bookshop) 10 minutes down the road – this area's had its fair share of more recent history too, as the valley’s slopes and gorge were once home to former President Paul Kruger's commandos during his escape to exile in the 19th-century. Martini-Henry rifle shells and enamel mugs used by Boer War soldiers and scouts are still sometimes dug up here... Not done with trekking yet? The varied trails of Wathaba, through mountains and forests past rivers and rocks, are within 35 minutes’ drive, while the gorges and rockpools of Bermanzi are 50 minutes away. Feet starting to hurt? For a sit-down activity instead, organise a fishing expedition on the Elands River after chatting to the informative folk at the Waterval Boven Trout Association, 10 minutes from the park.
