Dullstroom on the Dam Hiking Trail

Dullstroom- Activities

Profile

If you’re a serious hiker, you’ll find this trail super easy. That’s good news for anyone visiting Dullstroom that isn’t into fly-fishing and doesn’t want to spend entire days moving from café to restaurant to pub. 

The trail starts near the gated entrance to Dullstroom on the Dam and it’s clearly marked. Walking along the edge of one of the dams, you’ll cross through a small gate and begin the climb to the top. The trail is well-maintained and you shouldn’t find it too strenuous or uncomfortable – even without experience. Relax for a few minutes while taking in the view before following either the tire tracks or footpaths down into pasture land (where cows and horses are roaming). 

It’s a relaxing walk and the Irish-countryside-esque views are likely to stir a strange romanticist sensation of peace. And, as you return to the rec hall, see if they’re open, pet the dogs and grab a cool drink before heading out. 

It’s definitely worth it

Entrance to Dullstroom on the Dam is free
