Thyme Out restaurant served excellent food.
Birding is excellent, and I recommend hiring a guide. Without our guide Lucky, we would not have seen most of the endemics.

Wakkerstroom has a natural beauty and tranquil atmosphere.
Wakkerstroom has a natural beauty and tranquil atmosphere. The place is steeped in history. Every single person we met was friendly and prepared to save us some of his/her time to answer questions or give directions or advice.
I suppose this is life as it should be.

Quiet Village when we visited on a Tuesday.
Quiet Village when we visited on a Tuesday. Apparently the locals weekend is Mondays and Tuesdays and the Village experience more visitors over weekends. We had lunch at their Historical Hotel who had a menu that caters for everyone. We had outstanding Lamb Curry and tasteful thin base Pizza.
Their big wetlands at the bottom of the town had a lot of birdlife which must be explored over a few days.

Wakkerstroom is a well-known town, most especially for Birding, on the border of the Mpumalanga and Kwazulu-Natal provinces. I highly recommend booking one of the excellent birding guides that the town has to offer, if you are going birding. There are a few restaurants around the small town, and I had good experiences at the ones I tried (Red Rooster and Country Inn). The entire town is basically along a 3km or so long main strip of road. The side roads are all dirt roads, so I recommend a vehicle with high clearance, if not a 4x4. There is a single petrol station (Total) in the whole town along the main road, and I did not see Diesel fuel being sold there. Volksrust (23km away) has more options for fuel, as well as a SuperSPAR if need be. Take a jacket along, as the weather can change anytime, especially between morning and evening.

We went to do an organised Bird Watching Tour.
We went to do an organised Bird Watching Tour. It was exceptional. Some of the active Birders saw at least 10 new species, and our one member got to his number 500 on this tour.
We ate in the local restaurants and also bought meat for a braai.
We stayed in Semi Soet, really exceptional.

Wakkerstroom is quaint and well looked after little town.
Wakkerstroom is quaint and well looked after little town. Clean and quiet, with great opportunity to do bird watching and if you're really lucky, you may spot the elusive otters down by the bridge.
This is a quiet retreat for hikers and twitchers alike but come nightfall you may enjoy a wholesome and salubrious meal at a number of places in and around the main st. The nightlife may be a little less vigorous than some big cities or towns but you can still enjoy a superbly made gin & tonic at The Garret with choice of botanicals and fruit to complement it!
Overall the impression was of really being able to switch off and enjoy good clean air and wholesome goodness, like back in the old days...
