The Area

The area is world renowned for Rock Art, Skyrun, 8 Mountain Passes, Fly Fishing and Wilderness Eco-experience. On arrival at Pitlochrie you will be given a bird list – over 220 species recorded – and a map showing our various hiking trails, some of which can be mountain biked (own equipment necessary). Bring your tennis racquets and balls for some clay court fun and your cozzie for the best river/rock pool swimming. Pack a picnic for the beautiful picnic spots and lazy day experiences. Take a drive into Barkly East and have delicious pizza at the community run ‘The Cornerstone Coffee and Pizza Shop', meander into the historic village of Rhodes, or book a lunch at Tiffindell Ski who welcome day visitors. We follow eco-farming practices to conserve the natural environment and the many species of wild plants and animals which you will encounter in this mountain landscape. Please follow the ‘take nothing with, leave nothing behind' ethic.

Loadshedding Facilities

What is loadshedding? It refers to the temporary suspension of electricity provided by Eskom, South Africa's electricity provider, to reduce consumption and thereby the load on the national grid. To compensate, South African property owners are turning to solar power, inverters with backup batteries or in some cases generators to keep the power on, wherever feasible.
