Lindani Trails [17km] - Luxury Weekend Base Glamping Hikes [Vaalwater, LP]

Set in the heart of the Waterberg mountains, Lindani is a 3000ha Reserve offering a selection of game, accommodation options and outdoor activities.

Choose from 10 beautifully appointed, private, luxury self catering lodges, or go for the more rustic bush experience with our tented camp option or campsite.

With 70kms of cycling and hiking trails through game-filled plains, Lindani offers an exciting bushveld get-away for the whole family, only two and a half hour’s drive from Johannesburg and Pretoria.

Although we visited in November 2024, there are two (2) other interesting trails not yet hiked. There is also the option of doing the prior trails.

Camping is also available.

HIKING IS OPTIONAL. YOU CAN JOIN US FOR A GET AWAY TO RELAX AND UNWIND.
