Additional Information
With deep holes and rapids, Dimalachite is the ideal fishing venue for fly as well as deep-water fishing. Our motto is “catch and release”. So please take a nice photo, and release the fish as soon as possible. We rent out rafts to paddle to the islands and rapids, or you can bring your own. Met diep gate versprei oor die oewer, bied ons u die geleentheid om daardie grote aan te keer. Grootbek geelvis van tot 11,2kg is al hier gevang en vrygelaat, en kleinbek geelvis word gereeld aangekeer. Koning- en volskub karp van tot 15kg vat gereeld die aas. Onderbek van 3kg en baber van tot 20kg laat gereeld die katrolle sing.
Discover the peace and tranquillity of nature from the banks of the Vaal River...
Named after the MALACHITE KINGFISHER (Aloeda Cristata), that nest along the banks of the river, DIMALACHITE NATURE RESORTS and RIVER LODGE is
situated in the crater of South Africa's latest World Heritage site, the "Vredefort Dome". The crater was created 2000 million years ago by the
biggest and oldest Meteorite that ever struck the earth: It was 10 km in diameter (as big as Table Mountain)!
Caravan and campsites with a lovely view over the river are available, or make use of our regular 4 to 6 bed self-catering chalets. If you want to spoil the family, book them into the luxury 4 to 6 bed River Lodges. Bring only towels and something to eat.
