BergVenture

The Centre was built in the 1970’s by the then farm owner. Fernwood Shareblock bought the property from the F.A.K. and its now called BergVenture.
This beautiful sandstone building looks onto the Sterkspruit waterfall and consists of a central public area with two opposite “wings” where you will find the dorms,bathrooms and en-suite flats.

This beautiful location feels cut-off from the every day world, but in reality its just a comfortable 5 min ride on tar from the nearest shop/attraction.On the farm we have wildlife such as; Zebra, Wildebeest, Springbok, Blesbok, Bush Pig, Red Hartebeest and Porcupine to name but a few. The farm is also a registered site of conservation significance thanks to the San rock paintings in the caves on the property.

We always invite teachers / representatives from school / youth groups for a free no-obligation site inspection. We provide a 6 sleeper self-catering chalet for your family for the weekend. All we ask is an hour of your time to introduce you to our great brand.
