Stuck in the 70's. A good thing SAPS were excellent when I reported the damage to my rim. Well trained and very friendly staff and the old age home looks well looked after the elderly people in the Town.

Amazing historical village that seems undiscovered so far.... but for how long? Well run tourist friendly place with so much to offer - culinary, birding, rural life, history, friendly locals, hiking and outdoors. Loved the Wakkerstroom Hotel, excellent birding and history - great for groups of friends to enjoy.

A very peaceful, friendly place surrounded by beautiful mountains. The bird life is very interesting. Excellent places to eat. We had dinner at the Hotel where the hospitality was warm and friendly and the food very tasty especially the lamb The coffee at the bakery is excellent as is their food. There appear to be several festivals and events throughout the year. None when we were there.

Wakkerstroom is a tiny place. Take what you need with you.

Thyme Out restaurant served excellent food.
Birding is excellent, and I recommend hiring a guide. Without our guide Lucky, we would not have seen most of the endemics.

Wakkerstroom has a natural beauty and tranquil atmosphere.
Wakkerstroom has a natural beauty and tranquil atmosphere. The place is steeped in history. Every single person we met was friendly and prepared to save us some of his/her time to answer questions or give directions or advice.
I suppose this is life as it should be.

Quiet Village when we visited on a Tuesday.
Quiet Village when we visited on a Tuesday. Apparently the locals weekend is Mondays and Tuesdays and the Village experience more visitors over weekends. We had lunch at their Historical Hotel who had a menu that caters for everyone. We had outstanding Lamb Curry and tasteful thin base Pizza.
Their big wetlands at the bottom of the town had a lot of birdlife which must be explored over a few days.
