The Historical Village of Botshabelo is a congregation point for tired travelers (a typical "trading post) enjoying a refreshing meal and beverage in the village and experiencing the lifestyle of a bygone era - blacksmiths, wagon makers, handcraft artists, African rhythm, horse back riders, traveling on a horse cart, posting letters in a post box, trade in a general dealer shop, sleep in a Ndebele hut or a missionary house dating back to the early 1900's, etc.

Apart from the historical setting Botshabelo offers a variety of activities for families and the youth - village tours, cultural entertainment, abseiling, tubing on the river, horse back rides, mountain bike trails, 4x4 trail, obstacle course for horses, a zip line in the gorge, archery, sleeping in a typical ox wagon laager, paint ball, game viewing on horse back or game viewing vehicle.

Special interest groups make use of the vast potential of Botshabelo to host camps or hosting events at the village - church groups, school groups, student groups, family reunions, weddings and functions at the old missionary church, conferences, environmental education, to name a few.

If it is a breakaway you want then Botshabelo is the place to visit. It will rejuvenate your soul with a mix of the Highveld calmness, the cry of a jackal, the soft African drumbeat in the night and the friendliness of the staff.
