Resort Facilities

There is never a dull moment at Dunkeld Country & Equestrian Estate and no matter your activity preference, we have something for you!

Fly-fishing: we have 19 different sized dams and ponds that are well-stocked with trout from our on-site hatchery.
Horse riding: our trail centre horses are well trained and trustworthy, giving even the most novice rider the confidence to enjoy a ride in the Dullstroom countryside. Our Equestrian Centre is a popular destination for short weekend riding workshops for the more experienced rider.
Adventure sports: our on-site adventure team offers abseiling, balance beam, rock climbing, trapeze jump and a zipline.
Hiking, running and mountain biking trails: it is the perfect spot (both onsite and offsite) to open your lungs because of the high altitude. We have bicyles for hire.
Tennis courts: beat it out on the court and challenge your friends and family to a match.
