This part of the world is famous for its beautiful vistas and scenic landscapes, making it a veritable epicentre for those who want to experience the loveliness of this country within close proximity to world-class facilities and amenities.

This makes Roodefontein the destination of choice for those that love the outdoors, and who need the rest and relaxation that these gorgeous landscapes lend to those that visit.
There are a number of trails around Roodefontein that can by cycled, walked, hiked or enjoyed on horseback. These are fun to enjoy on one's own, but some are also available in guided form. The Robberg Nature Reserve and Knysna Elephant Park are both nearby and are a delight for young and old alike. Roodefontein is perfect for families with little ones, couples, groups of friends or lone travellers that want to become acquainted with the unforgettable splendour that is South Africa.
