Directions from Gauteng

N.B. ROCKWOOD FOREST LODGE and ROCKWOOD MOUNTAIN CABIN are accessible using HIGH CLEARANCE or 4x4 VEHICLES ONLY. ROCKWOOD FARM HOUSE and FARM COTTAGE are accessed on gravel roads.

As Rockwood operates in a remote area, we encourage our guests to notify us of their arrival time and to proceed to our office / reception to "check-in." Although, all units are sign-posted, staff can assist with directions, assistance on muddy roads and ensure that guests are settled into their accommodation. Should guests wish to proceed directly to their lodges, please let management and staff know so that gates are open, keys are available, lodges are unlocked and alarms disarmed.
