The Sudwala Dinosaur Park allows children to see dinosaurs up close.
In 2011 the Sudwala Caves became the first venue in Mpumalanga to offer a Garra Rufa Fish Spa. The spa is picturesquely situated out of doors, with a panoramic view of the valley below.
These minnow-like fish are famed for their habit of gently nibbling away at and consuming dead skin – and only dead skin.
The water in the Sudwala Spa fish baths is constantly filtered through bio-filters, and UHF rays are used to kill any bacteria in the water. Customers are also required to wash their feet in an antiseptic bath prior to dipping them into the fish bath.

Sudwala Caves are the oldest known caves in the world, and a must see for visitors to the Mpumalanga Highlands.
Visitors can explore the caves on two tours:
Cave Tour: This one hour tour is suitable for everyone - young and old. A tour guide will take you on an informative and fun tour of spacious, well lit chambers with good air-flow which comes from an as yet, unknown source!
Crystal Tour: The five hour Crystal Tour is a once in a lifetime experience for the really adventurous. The tour takes you 2,000 meters into the cave to the outskirts of the crystal chamber.

An ancient stone circle discovered in 2003 in Kaapsehoop is thought to be an ancient observatory and tool to track the movement of the stars – and the oldest human-made structure on earth, far older than Stone Henge and tens of thousands of years older than the pyramids. Originally thought to be 75 000 years old, they are now thought to be over 200 000 years old. Creepy? Some who have been there say so. They say they can feel something there. What is incredible is that the stone circle now dubbed Adam’s Calendar is one of many that have been spotted since from the air throughout Southern Africa and which all seem to be linked by ancient roadways, hinting at an impossibly ancient civilization

In Waterval Onder (NOT Belfast) just 10 min. from us:
Krugerhof was the last residence of President S.J.Paul. Kruger in the South African Republic (ZAR). He had left Pretoria in May 1900 because of the threat of the approaching British forces. For some weeks he lived aboard the presidential train which was stationed at Machadodorp. The cold proved too much for the 74 year old President and he moved to Krugerhof, an annex of the Hotel

Parks & Nature
40 minutes drive from here, but definitely worth it. It is only in a very few tourist guides, so it is not so overrun and crowded like other "Tourist Traps". A real gem of a Secret Tip -> Adam's Calendar ( and the 2 pyramids) !!
Biggest Wild Horses Colony in Africa !!
Great Hiking with the most amazing view (better than God's Window our guests say), several waterfalls.
Blue-Swallow-Reservation.
Great Restaurants with live music on some Sundays !!
Horse riding trails.
