Pilanesberg National Park —
Pilanesberg National Park in Rustenburg, South Africa, is a little too like a zoo for some, with tarred roads and an easy two-hour drive from the city. For others, that's exactly what makes it perfect.

Drakensberg mountains —
The Drakensberg mountains are home to rock paintings by the San people, as well as wide open spaces and a slower, rural pace of life.

Midlands —
Rolling green fields, cows, drizzle and mist. You might mistake it for England, but actually these Midlands are on the other side of the planet, three hours drive south of Joburg in KwaZulu-Natal.

Magliesberg —
This ancient mountain range is a pleasant place to breathe fresh air and recharge. There are plenty of resorts and campsites to stay at.
