THE WATERBERG MEANDER

Imagine 8000 sq km of savannah for you to enjoy...

The Waterberg Biosphere Reserve stretches from Marakele National Park in the south west to Wonderkop nature reserve in the north-east. Ringed by escarpments on three sides, the Waterberg forms a wide basin in which four of the main rivers in Limpopo originate. The landscape is one of rolling hills and endless vistas, with a distinct bushveld feel.

This region is a magical part of South Africa and offers experiences that are as diverse as there are many: wide open spaces with a rare wilderness quality, the romance of true bushveld, a rich biodiversity, and close encounters with some of Africa's most charismatic and sought-after wildlife.

Discover fascinating people and places... on foot, on horseback or in a vehicle. In the Waterberg you have it all at your fingertips!

The Waterberg Meander showcases prime tourist attractions within the area, exposes a series of community linked projects and provides a rich informative self-drive tour of historical, geological, cultural and environmental sites along the route.

The Meander is organised in 3 sections:

• 13 community linked projects along the route

• 22 sites of interest along the route

• a multitude of places to stay & things to do

To help you make the most of your visit to the Waterberg we have colour-coded each of these aspects of the route and accompanied them with detailed maps.

The Waterberg Meander route is also available in brochure format and comprises all GPS coordinates of the 3 sections above. You are welcome to download your own copy and print it before hitting the road. It will be a useful travel companion.
