Map of Magaliesburg
|
The
Magaliesberg is a beautiful low range of hills not far from the city
of Johannesburg and close to the town of Magaliesburg. Note the spelling.
Magaliesburg is the town, Magaliesberg is the range. But, hey, what’s in
a name? Magaliesberg is a fun little centre with a very countrified feel
to it and loads of bucolic pleasures. Pick up a copy of the Magalies
Meander map. It’s a snazzy little marketing initiative that has linked
together loads of fun products such as guest houses, museums, craft shops,
restaurants and attractions as varied as South Africa’s first gold mine,
a hot air balloon trip, spas and wellness centres, and a cheese factory. |
It’s
also really close to the fascinating Cradle
of Humankind.
Now
the Magaliesberg is even more inviting. Although not very high, it’s a
beautiful range with lovely flora, some small game and loads of beautiful
streams, pools and waterfalls. It’s a real escape from the frenetic urban
conurbations of Pretoria
and Johannesburg,
and it’s hard to believe it’s so close. The hiking is legendary, there
are some fun kloofing trips and some good climbing, too.
There are horse trails
in the area and South Africa’s largest gliding
club is situated nearby.

De
Hoek Country House, Boutique Hotel, Magalies Meander, MAGALIESBURG
De Hoek - the Stone House
- the only 5 star country house in Magaliesburg, is situated in a unique
valley; distinguished by its pocket of indigenous bush, amongst a sprawling
farming community and a small but bountiful river. The house was
built 10 years ago, but looks one hundred years old. It was designed for
a family who have owned the land for a long time, and wanted to build a
family country house at first. The result was a house that perfectly matched
the environment and spirit of the family - a traditional design using the
'H' plan of old Cape homesteads, tin roof and stone walls of the Transvaal,
Karoo and Free State homes of old. Stone and timber, with cool dark
rooms of elegant proportions, a vast dining room opening onto terraces
- East and West; a living room above the entrance leading out to a balcony;
and bedrooms upstairs in the wings of the house, each with its own special
view. |
