Great
Getaway Ideas to Dinokeng and the Diamond Era |
Just
northeast of Tshwane (Pretoria) lies the warm big-sky region
of Dinokeng, source of the world’s biggest diamond
and an area that sparkles with natural, cultural and historical
attractions.
The Dinokeng area boasts many venues for conferences, team
building, weddings, game viewing (Big 5), hiking and birding,
restaurants, shebeens, museums, water activities, jewellery,
art & craft studios and shops, theatres and festivals. |
With its rich cultural and historical heritage - featuring
iron and stone age sites, relics of colonial diamond mining
activities and Anglo-Boer war and World War II sites, as
well as its history of black oppression and forced removal.
Visitors can enjoy township tours through the vibrant communities
of Hammanskraal, Refilwe and Onverwacht. Dinokeng, meaning
“place of rivers”, covers some 281 000 hectares
of rural land, including areas such as Roodeplaat, Rayton,
Cullinan and the huge wide-open bushveld north of the Moloto
Road (R573). [Click

It even spills over into the provinces of Limpopo and Mpumalanga,
up to Pienaars River and the Rust de Winter area.
Dinokeng is a Blue IQ initiative of the Gauteng Provincial
Government, with the objective to establish a premier tourist
destination close to urban Gauteng. The project aims to
promote economic growth, job creation and social upliftment
through conserving and developing the historical, natural
and cultural heritage of the area.
|
For
the easy location of venues,
we have divided Dinokeng into 4 main areas:
DINOKENG NORTH
(area north of R573),
DINOKENG SOUTH

ROODEPLAAT DAM AREA
