Summer (December To February)
Summer in Tzaneen is hot and humid, making it perfect for the outdoor adventurer. Try some of these summer activities:
- Hikes in the nearby Drakensberg Escarpment are popular during the summer. You can take a refreshing dip in one of the many streams and waterfalls. Birdwatchers will be thrilled by the great variety of birdlife.
- Hot air balloon safaris, abseiling, and other adrenaline-pumping activities are also on the cards in summer.
Autumn (March To May)
As the leaves turn to rich, warm shades of red, orange, and brown, the weather becomes cooler, and these activities might appeal to you:
- Take a scenic flight in a microlight for a unique game-viewing experience.
- Hire a quad bike and choose from one of the many scenic trails to get your heart racing. Trails are graded in terms of difficulty and skills required, so you can choose the one that best matches your capabilities.
Winter (June To August)
Mild winters with cool nights but still warm days mean you still have plenty of activities to choose from, including:
- On a clear night, grab your blanket and head outdoors for an unforgettable stargazing experience. The skies are often clear, with less pollution, so you will have a great view of the Milky Way.
- On colder days, take the opportunity to light a fire and get cosy with a book, a glass of wine (and a friend, if you like). Rest and relaxation at its best.
Spring (September To November)
Spring brings a freshness to the natural beauty around Tzaneen as Mother Nature puts on her best green dress. Things to do in spring include:
- Pack a picnic basket and head to one of the top picnic sites like Tzaneen Nature Reserve and Dam, Glencoe Giant Baobab or Debengeni Waterfall.
- You can enjoy one of the local parks, such as the Vervet Monkey Foundation, Mangela Animal Touch Farm or Agatha Crocodile Ranch.
