Dullstroom is home to the three endangered cranes and particularly the scarce wattled crane.

1x Wattled crane |
Only 2 hours from Gauteng, en route to the Kruger National Park. Picture a log fire, a misty morning, a trout stream. Not a dream - it's Dullstroom whoo hoo!!!
Anyway, so my whole family headed on up to our farm for a Christmas in July. It was flippen awesome having everyone there. The farm is actually about 30min away from Dully's but its still part of Mpumalanga and a nice little day trip for some pub hopping.
Interesting fact number TWO: The village, situated at 2100m above sea level in the Steenkampsberg range, dates back to the early 1880's, when Dutch settlers came to the area. The town got its name from some guy named Wolterus Dull, chairman of the Dutch immigrants. The "stroom" (stream) refers to the abundance of water in the area: The Crocodile River, which runs through the Kruger National Park, has its origin in Dullstroom.
