This site not maintained as it should be. Many daily travelers and visitors. Road in poor no maintenance done. Ashamed that foreigners must witness decay here and all over South Africa.Hartbeespoortdam icon and needs to be preserved for future generations.Beautiful site, surrounding areas. Good breakaway from concrete jungle.

You have to take a walk on the bridge, the views are fantastic and its great for photos. A definite must see when in Haartebeespoort!

It is a very beautiful creation to set thy eyes upon. You park your car just before the bridge and take a walk to see the dam, the Waterfalls and the wall. It is worth seeing.

The old dam wall stands majestic in the early morning light. The photos were taken from beneath the dam wall. The wall needs some maintenance to restore it to its former glory. But definitely worth a visit and exploring.

Took a shot left after helping at Vulpro Vulture Sanctuary which is a mere 20 min from the Dam. Was nice to see thatvthe dam looked clean we couldnt see anything from where we were and the dam was full and flowing. Took a drive to the local flea market for a look around and get some ice cream . Was a great day out

Yooooh I liked the place, naturally beautiful. The history that written on the wall, the name list of the laborers that built that dam wall.Everything was perfect. The traffic officers were also friendly and patience. Wow....

Quite the draw card for day visitors to the area. Offers some spectacular views combined with timeless architecture. A fun day out for families and tour groups. Great scenery.

A timeless piece of Architecture. Beautifully designed many years ago and keeps looking better with age. breathtaking views.

Very nice and lovely natural place.

We had a great walk exploring the dam wall great place

A strange place to go. The wall is incredible to walk on but it could appear dangerous. Lots of people trying to see goods. Lots of litter and the water smells offensive. If you can get past all the negatives it remains one of my favorite places to visit

Visit after good rains.

A wonderful spot to take in the beauty and heart of Harties. Particularly captivating during the wet season. Traffic here builds up significantly on weekend afternoons so best to make this your first stop for a day out of the city.

Nice place to enjoy and chill at the dam. Its great to see water flowing from dam

The view from the bridge is amazing. A very nice and relaxing place to visit

Some great views and look out points. Be careful if flying a drone... it can get windy and the buildings are extremely high up if it happens to crash. 😅

I love the views.

Its a very peacefull place hartbeespoort dam

I love driving to hartees on Sunday afternoons for sundowners and watching the sun set

Was awesome seeing the outflow! Amazing view!

Dam is based in Hartbeespoort. Situated near Johannesburg and Pretoria. Nearby restaurants are available along with pubs and bars. Many picnic spots near the dam and also lots of resorts and clubhouses for party and accommodations available at those resorts.

Awesome! The first time up on 360 cableway...good view, good restaurant.WOW VERY EXITING!

The dam is full the water is filthy to say the least. The day spent with the family was amazing and will recommend a day in the fresh air to anyone it’s a great place to spend time

Beautiful sight seeing very scenic

This thing was completed in 1923... And its beautiful.

Nice place 2 visit

Excellent place for relaxing your mind,,,,,,, really enjoyed being here 🙌

A photographers paradise. Loved coming here. Amazing scenery and architecture here. Peoples reviews of the level of safety was not a deterrent for me simply due to me coming for a sunrise shoot (a time when most people are asleep).It seemed pretty safe to me. As always, one has to always exert caution in South Africa.

So beautiful and refreshing when you go during off peak season and its not overcrowded. Love it

Gorgeous view, not a lot of foot traffic. First time I visited here. Traffic coming in and going out is a lot to take in.

Super cool view. The traffic is not so pleasant though.

View from the dam is gorgeous especially during sunset.

Gorgeous view

Amazing place....worth the visit.

The dam is unfortunately full of graffiti and not well maintained. It is still a sight to see if you havent been before.

Beautiful scenery

Lovely place to relax with family fresh air.

Lovely town we live in.

Its a very nice place

The waterfalls on the rocks are beautiful really nice to see and it’s free.

Beautiful view 😍

Love the dam its just dirty

Its a very nice place to have a peace of mind. Mind and soul needs nature sometimes.

Very nice place to visit with family and friends.

The Harties Dam wall is always a welcome on a riding breakfast runs. Its always a nice spot to take pictures with the beautiful view of the water cascading down the dam wall.

A serene experience. Beautiful and relaxing. A location where the drive to the site is part of the experience. Perfect for a Sunday late afternoon drive

The fresh air from the wall is so extra ordinary. If you have not tried. It is a must

Awesome bit of architecture and great views of how the dam works. There’s a good dirt parking area just south of the bridge that is the only realistic point to park and explore from. There are a lot of street vendors and cars trying to make it through the traffic lights, so keep an eye on your valuables and kids. All in all, an interesting stop!

An excellent stop to view Harties for individuals, couples and families. Mind the cars that drive by as some people dint care for pedestrians. Very busy with tourists.

This place is so beautiful to even remember your problems

The best place to be at for some peace and quiet.

If you think of a getaway location to drive to, them this would be the place to be. Its just a small and crowded place, where one wont get any shade to sit and relax. The vehicles keep passing by and you start thinking of already leaving after reaching there. The places to sit and relax are many near the dam. I would suggest them.

Beautiful view, nice for tour

This is one of the most beautiful areas just outside Pretoria and Johannesburg. There are many restaurants to choose from and the dam wall itself is majestic to visit while the dam is overflowing. The nature is amazing and there is a lion park as well as a zoo nearby.

Love walking here on the bridge to watch the water flow. Best experience is when the water sluice is opened. Be careful of the cars driving by.

Went for a breakfast run, afterwards we went to the dam wall and what a beautiful sight!! Love it...❤

Really clean and organized place... Friendly traffic officers too

Hidden treasures abound. Van Gaalen cheese a real treat.

Lovely place for a Sunday outing.

Great view, you will enjoy 😍

It was an awesome 👌 experience

Woooow what a beautiful place to visit,when I think about the most exotic, beautiful place... Hartbeespoort is at the front of my mind. Its an incredible place to spend whole day relaxing there,amazing restaurants,bars etc.

Exciting and very natural to see and soothing the soul

Lovely dam would be amazing if it was fully flowing

Fantastic place for a lunch or sunset cruise. You can also have va private one any time. There is also lots of other things to do...plus a live latino band at a Mozambique restaurant

Great view but low maintenance.

Best outing ever 👌the atmosphere attraction

Was really full today after all the 🌧

It was a nice experience. Nature lovers must visit that side.

A wonderful site to take family out to rewind

Incredible view and experience!!!

A good family outing. Not far from Johannesburg and a scenic drive to the dam.

Nice views

Very exciting the dam wonderful views. Refreshing 😃

The fresh water breez 💯

Beautiful view. There tends to be traffic on the bridge ,but not too much its bearable. Downside are the street hecklers and vendors who forcefully give you something for free and then ask for donations in return

Wow, this place is amazing. Even though there is not much to do here, the views are just breathtaking.You can take a brisk walk and watch the sunset.A great place for photography too, I felt like I was a model with all the photos we took.Defintely a great place to visit once in a while.The dam wall is an architectural masterpiece.

Such a beautiful places around.But very sadly after covid its changed completely no care of the dam and water cleaning

This is a beautiful, breathtaking place to see and take photos on.

On our way back home from Gauteng Starmedic & SelaeloMat

Safe and very beautiful. The place is very adventurers, its like your in another country. Check my pictures. It has plants on inside the water, its like there is no water. Mountains and dam is so beautiful.

The dam is beautiful but needs to be cleaned.

So refreshing

Great vibe. Especially if there is brandy

Grand scale. Loved it

A morning visit on foot to unwind with a few snappies. Though poluted the view remains something to see.

Breathtaking views. Great ingenuity.

This place is a fun dam to take pictures as a Family... It is safe and has parking to park your car safely...

Beautiful view and good for tourists.

It was a memorable experience as I got to share it with my child. It was her first visit and she loved it. 😁

Absolutely magestic scenery. Try avoiding it over the weekend or any other day where youd anticipate folk with idle time flock over there.

Great view.

Great views,beautiful and relaxing. Traffic to cross over to the other side its quite hectic and watch out for hawkers aggressiveness,ensure ur car windows are closed at all times

Lovely views from the dam wall. Many things to do around the dam.A nice day trip if you want to get away from the city.

Very good place to be visited

Its nice

Always great feeling

Its such a beautiful place

Nice place to whats the dam. Very nice view

Always a great outing over the dam wall, especially after rainfall & when the gates are opened.The view of crossing the dam includes the Magalies mountain range, dam arch, waterfall, river, sluice gates etc.Unfortunately the hawkers is a bit of a pest & the traffic very slow & frustrating.The area around the dam wall is very untidy.
