GUIDES

AFRICA






The small village of Hillcrest was founded in 1895 as a farming settlement, and started growing very slowly since the introduction of tarred roads only in the 1970s and 1980s. Hillcrest boasts a very clean environment as well as an almost rustic vibe, with scenic views scattered throughout.

Hillcrest hosts an exciting night life with various clubs, pubs and an ever changing list of trendy new restaurants. The town is located near the awe-inspiring Valley of 1000 Hills which is in itself a popular tourist destination. Shongweni Dam provides visitors with decent fishing and picnic facilities, whilst the Game Reserve proves to be an amazing hiking and birdwatching venue. Then there are the Shongweni Polo Grounds which often serve as backdrop to thrilling games of polo, occasionally hosting matches between our national team and visiting opponents such as the likes of Argentina. Inanda Dam, which lies along the route of the renowned Dusi Canoe Race, is also close.
