Winterton

Winterton is just not a town, but a region with its own culture. A little like the winelands in the Cape. There are the magnificent Drakensburg mountains as a backdrop to a plethora of other interests in the area. The Winterton area is steeped in South African History for the buffs that want to see the battles that occurred during the Boer/English/Zulu wars. There is also the magnificent Drakensburg Escarpment that carries its own history of the SAN people. The area is a National Heritage site and a sanctuary for many protected birds of prey. In addition to all of this, the Winterton cove, promises to be a shoppers delight. Incredible leather items, hand woven carpets and candles to mention a few. Visit the area for an incredible escape. And no, not just only when it snows!

Great little town, friendly people, Good Restaurants and great views. A place to stop by for few days.

Winterton is a peaceful town. It is relaxing and accomodating.

The hiking trails are magnificent, I did the Gorge Trail in Royal National Park, it was awesome with breathtaking views and scenes of nature, especially the Amphitheatre! We are only 3-4 hours drive from Johannesburg and Pretoria and only 2-3 hours from Durban. A wonderful break away for a weekend or a romantic treat for a couple. Quite a few spas available for that special treatment you've been waiting for. Visit us for an unforgettable experience!! You'll be coming back time and again!!

Beautiful little town. Friendly and peaceful. The new Super Spar makes any self catering accommodation a breeze.
