Dimalachite is named after the MALACHITE KING FISHER (Aloeda Cristata) that nests along the banks of the Vaal river, surrounded by water, wild life and nature - where the call of the Fish Eagle can be heard from time to time. Accommodation options range from three star lodges, regular self catering chalets, camping sites on the riverbank and a youth hostel. Dimalachite River Lodge welcomes 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 game drive, 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 camp fire. Our corporate clients can be sure of our best service, scrumptious meals (in the vintage boma or dining room) and great activities.
Dimalachite River Lodge cater for families, family reunions, caravan clubs, golfing groups, fishermen, friends, corporate functions and youth groups. The kiosk keeps the normal: Ice, wood, charcoal, cold drinks, ice-cream, beer, tackle, etc. As with other resorts, it is normally not so busy during in season and midweek, but during peak season you can expect more visitors. The small town of Parys which lies in the Vredefort dome is 90 minutes drive from Gauteng and Oliver Tambo international (Johannesburg), 45 minutes from the Vaal triangle and Potchefstroom, 2 hrs form Pretoria and 3hrs from Bloemfontein. Parys is a very popular tourism destination with a lot of curio shops, cosy dining places etc. The Vaal de Grace golf course developed by Nicky Price on an island is very popular, as is the Parys golf estate. There are a few game farms in the area, and while driving through the Dome Bergland, you are welcome to visit Schoemanati Mampoer farm. Venterskroon is also an interesting place to visit. There are a few good hiking trails in the mountains. The yearly "Crater Cruise" mountain bike event and Parys adventure festival are events not to be missed. One of the best 4x4 trails (Baraka) in South Africa is on our doorstep.
