Join us for a getaway that promises both relaxation and adventure, just moments away from the city’s vibrant energy.
The dam comprises five crests with a walkway along one of these that allows visitors to appreciate the size and magnitude of the dam wall, as well as the beauty of the lake.
The three middle crests are at different levels, with the middle one being the lowest and constantly overflowing. The one just to the left only overflows during very heavy rainfall.
Built on the Crocodile River, it is a testament to his foresight and determination to provide the property with a natural “water feature” that would attract guests as well as various species of water birds.
Being in the Cradle Moon Conservancy, the lake is frequently used by paddlers, canoeists, fly fisherman and open-water swimmers as it is a clean and safe body of water. Lake Heritage has played host to multiple swimming events including the Rockman Ultra Triathlon and the Midmar Mile qualification rounds.
