The river cascades across huge slabs of rock at Hartbeespoort Dam, an arch-type dam surrounded by the Magaliesberg mountain range. A popular weekend getaway, this dam cradled in the lap of the mountains was once gaming area for the hartebeest after which it was named. With a yacht club operating on the lake since the construction of the dam in 1923, the area offers a wide range of water sports. You can also hike here. Because of all the tourism, you'll find plenty of restaurants and local crafts here.

The dam is turning green again, mostly at the western end. Cars cheating at Dam Wall robots , this could be a accident in waiting.
