Location

Valkfontien and Trout Woods are in close proximity to Machadadorp, Dullstroom and Waterval Boven all of which are picturesque little towns well worth visiting.

How to get there

Just two and a half hours drive from Johannesburg on the N4 toll road. Shortly after the Machadadorp Toll Gate you turn off left along the Schoemanskloof road and follow the road for approximately 4.5Km until you reach a sign stating “Goedewill”. Here you again turn left. The road changes to a gravel road as you turn off and then forks into two gravel roads approximately 500 meters after you have turned off. You need to take the road which goes to your left and follow this for a further 6.5 km and you will see the main gate to Valkfontein. Subject to a reservation we will explain the details of how you get through the main gate.

Please feel free to contact us for details on how to get there and directions.
