Great things in store for guests & visitors to The Magalies Meander ...

We're very honoured to have FOUR national teams staying within our Meander area for the forthcoming Soccer World Cup : England (Rustenburg); South Korea (near Rustenburg); Portugal (Magaliesburg) and Australia (Kromdraai).

A warm welcome awaits them and we wish them well in their endeavours in this prestigious competition. As the days fly by in the run-up to the arrival of the teams, there is a great hype growing by the day amongst South Africans all over the country and we are very grateful indeed for the excellent media coverage we are receiving from both foreign and local media representatives. They are doing a fantastic job in telling their publics what actually is going in South Africa during this, the final stretch of the run-up.

Due to last-minute cancellations of bookings for accommodation by Match, in particular, some of our Members now have very good, graded accommodation avilable at reasonable prices.

This information should be of interest to both South African and foreign visitors looking for either self-catering or bed-and-breakfast facilities. our game lodges too have excellent accommodations packages on offer. You have a great choice of venues on offer and can either contact the venues directly via the contact details on this web-site or via your usual booking and reservations agent. Don't leave it too late as we are expecting a second wave of visitors and guests to our Magalies Meander area as the tournament progresses!"


 

The sheer natural and un-spoilt beauty of the area along the majestic Magaliesberg mountains with its rivers, valleys and indigenous forests provides us with the perfect attraction for a get-away from the hustle and bustle of day-to-day life in the main urban centres of Gauteng.

Within an hour’s drive from your City environment, you’ll reach one of the most scenic destinations in South Africa to take time out to enjoy a great variety of interests and activities…and to relax.

Over a hundred members of the Magalies Meander have created a wonderful variety of accommodation and hospitality venues ( all graded ), adventure activities, sports events and recreation, country shopping, health spa’s and wellness venues, arts and crafts centres, history and cultural centres. It is a haven for nature-lovers too.

There’s nothing quite like the Magalies Meander on the door-step of your City environment!

Our motto is “There are no strangers here – only friends we haven’t met “.

We can’t wait to meet you!

Rediscover the cradle of evolution, where over thousands of years a succession of societies have lived, farmed, hunted and clashed in incessant violent wars. Observe some of the most famous territorial and religious battle sites to date including the South African war of 1899 to 1902, leaving behind nothing but bitter memories, simple graves and tumbled ruins of old fortifications.

Wallow in the indigenous beauty of the region that remained unscathed, where with peace came the return of scientists and naturalists. And discover why the Magaliesburg continues to be a sanctuary from urban life stress, a haven of natural and cultural history and a gift of eternal wealth for all.

"There are no strangers here,
only friends we haven’t met".
