Welgevonden is a beautiful focal point of the Waterberg Plateau – truly one of the world’s last unspoilt wilderness areas. Come explore for yourself and you’ll quickly understand why the Waterberg speaks to the heart of every nature lover. Open spaces go on forever and the solitude and wilderness speaks of a time when the world was unspoilt and untouched.
The most exciting and unique wildlife are residents of the Waterberg and you can believe that the word ‘biodiversity’ was invented here. It is a place of meandering river systems - not least being the almost mystical Palala – which live side by side the beauty of the bush. And a place where rich cultural and archaeological landmarks reveal the secrets from another place in time.
For unsurpassed beauty, conservation up close and in action and a world of diversity – the Waterberg knows no contender. And whether your aim is to rejuvenate the soul, treat the senses or discover the art and cultural secrets of the Waterberg Meander – here is a place you will quickly.
Welgevonden is situated in a region of the Limpopo Province known as Capricorn – so called after the geographical line crossing the province and the northern section of the area. At its centre is Polokwane, one of the nation’s fastest growing cities. The town was founded in the gold rush days of the 1880s and is as interesting as its surroundings, a land that has witnessed Stone Age nomads, Iron Age settlements, European migration, wars and political upheaval. Today it is known for its fascinating historical sites and attractions ranging from San rock artwork to prehistoric sites. Outdoor lovers revel in an untouched rural environment and extensive game and bird life.
