Southern Region Accommodation

Why you might choose to stay in the Southern Region

In a similar vein to the eastern part of the North West Province, the southern region is also predominantly a crop-growing area that produces maize, sunflowers, tobacco, cotton and citrus fruits. The Southern Region is also the region with the most economic activity – more than 83 percent of the money-making activity of the province takes place between Potchefstroom and Klerksdorp. Did you know? Wolwespruit is one of the least known of the parks in the North West province, possibly because of its size - it isn't large by any means, only 2330 hectares. The southern region lies bordering the Free State in the south, and Gauteng to the west, the Vaal River flanking its southern border, and providing a collection of lodges and guest houses for effortless time spent fly fishing and angling, as well as other water activities.

The southern part of the North West is promoted as an outdoor adventurer's delight, and it is not hard to imagine, given the many opportunities to hike, mountain bike, white water raft, climb mountains and generally enjoy the great outdoors. With attractions like the Bloemhof Dam Reserve and the Boskop Dam Reserve, both of which offer the magnetism of water, and the Vredefort Dome, the crater site of a massive meteorite that is over 10 square kilometres in size, and one of the main tourism sites in the province, it is not hard to see that the central region is frequently visited, particularly as it is so close to Gauteng. The appealing city of Potchefstroom, situated on the banks of the Mooi River, and the commercial town of Klerksdorp, are not the only towns worth visiting, so experience the best of the region, by staying at one of the more luxurious Southern Region accommodation options.
