Located just under an hour south of downtown Joburg, the Vaal has long been a destination for locals to get away from it all, but it’s also a great place to relax for tourists visiting the area. Some Joburgers like the area so much that they’ve bought second homes along the river in an area known as “Millionaire’s Row,” and there’s a good reason for that. The scenic Vaal River and surrounding area has plenty of outdoor activities to participate in, several towns to explore, and is even home to the largest meteorite impact crater on earth, the Vredefort Dome. No matter what type of traveler you are, you’re sure to find something fun to do there.
