Geluksburg meaning "Luck Mountain" is a tiny village situated on the border of Natal and the Free State on the edge of the Drakensberg Mountain Range. Accessed only by a loop road off the R616 which links Bergville and Ladysmith, Geluksberg is an enchanting and isolated mountain getaway destination.

Surrounded by the magnificent Drakensberg scenery and all the mountain pursuits it has to offer, the Geluksberg visitor is close enough to take advantage of the delights afforded by The Spioenkop Dam and Nature Reserve. Here the visitor has an opportunity to view game such as White Rhino, Giraffe, Buffalo and numerous species of antelope in their natural surroundings while enjoying canoeing on the dam itself.

From Geluksberg, visitors can also take day trips to the famous battle sites that characterise the Natal Battlefields Route and which are specially concentrated in the area of Ladysmith.

With its bracing mountain air and picturesque location Geluksberg offers a welcome respite to the visitor looking for a little peace and quiet.
