What to do and see in Krugersdorp, Gauteng: The Best Things to do Good for Couples

October 24, 2021 Toi Mattera

Krugersdorp (Afrikaans for Kruger's town) is a mining city in the West Rand, Gauteng Province, South Africa founded in 1887 by Marthinus Pretorius. Following the discovery of gold on the Witwatersrand, a need arose for a major town in the west of the reef. The government bought part of the Paardekraal farm and named the new town after the Transvaal president, Paul Kruger. Krugersdorp no longer has a separate municipal government after it was integrated into Mogale City Local Municipality along with surrounding towns. It is now the seat of government for Mogale City.

Nirox Sculpture Park

Reviewed By silestg - Pretoria, South Africa

Nirox is definitely one of the best places to visit in the Cradle of Humankind. Look out for their regular art fairs or outdoor music shows. It's normally a bit pricy but well worth the experience.

Visited this park 3rd-4th April and had a great time. As well as having a self drive safari we also visited the breeding centre ( which is included in price), and we’re lucky enough to see 4 day old white lion cubs with their mother, fantastic experience & one you would not normally see in the wild. We also paid extra to go in with 2, 5 month old lion cubs which for me was a dream come true. We stayed over in one of the log cabins over looking the lion park & could here the roar of the lions during the night. The log cabins are beautiful & you even have your own private hot tub & briie ( barbecue). Throughly enjoyed our trip & would recommend this park for families also.
