Dimalachite River Lodge

We are situated on the banks of the Vaal River, close to Parys, in the Vredefort Dome World Heritage Site. Dimalachite is named after the MALACHITE KINGFISHER (Corythornis cristatus) that nests along the banks of the Vaal River, surrounded by water, wildlife and nature, where the call of the Fish Eagle can be heard from time to time.Accommodation options include lodges and chalets, camping sites on the riverbank to a youth hostel. We welcome private families and friends, corporate clients, adventure seekers and school groups.Come and relax at the swimming pool, do bird watching, paddle on the river or enjoy the thrill of White Water Rafting. Join us for a guided fishing trip, corporate team-building, conferencing or leadership camp.The kids can bring their bicycles, swim, play at the jungle gym, try the trampolines, play mini golf or do paint-ball target shooting. Enjoy your evenings with friends, family or colleagues on the riverbank around a campfire. Our corporate clients can be sure of our best service, scrumptious meals (in the vintage boma or dining room) and great activities.
