Elandsdrift
When you need to get away from it all, the enclave of Elandsdrift is the ideal destination for you. Situated between the city of Johannesburg and popular holiday hamlet of the Magaliesberg, Elandsdrift boasts a convenient geographic location putting visitors and residents within reasonable distance of both the city and the countryside. Additionally, it is close to Lanseria airport and gives travellers easy access to the likes of prominent suburbs Fourways and Sandton.
Elandsdrift is the perfect getaway when you need a much deserved time-out from the city; it is also a wonderful location for corporate teambuilding weekends away. The scenery is breathtaking and the atmosphere calm and serene – a sharp and admittedly refreshing contrast to the hustle and bustle and congestion of Johannesburg. In recent years, it has even developed into one of the more popular wedding destinations in the province largely due to its striking scenery and very favourable weather. Because it is far enough out of the city but also close enough to many amenities, more and more couples are hosting their dream weddings here.
Furthermore, Elandsdrift is right on the doorstep of the Cradle of Humankind – one of South Africa’s most famous tourist attractions. The Cradle of Humankind has been awarded the prestigious title of World Heritage Site and has a plethora of excavation sites comprehensively detailing the different ways of life throughout the ages; it is a must visit for anyone travelling through Gauteng. Other attractions in close proximity to Elandsdrift include the Lion Park and the Croc City Crocodile Farm.
