Description

Fountains Valley Resort offers a unique and historic camping experience, providing a green oasis right in the heart of Pretoria. As part of the Groenkloof Nature Reserve, one of the oldest in the country, this is more than just a park; it's a piece of the city's living history. The resort is famously fed by two natural springs, which still provide a portion of Pretoria's water supply, adding to its special character.

The caravan park provides a convenient and leafy escape for both locals and travellers. A generous number of campsites are set within the well-maintained gardens, offering a tranquil environment with the convenience of city access. These sites are supported by braai facilities and ablution blocks, providing the essential comforts for an urban camping getaway. The resort is a popular spot for day visitors and picnics, creating a vibrant and lively atmosphere, especially over weekends.

What makes a stay here so special is the feeling of being in nature while surrounded by the city. You can spend the day relaxing by the large swimming pool, enjoying a braai with family, or exploring the greater nature reserve. The resort is also a popular venue for festivals and events, meaning visitors can sometimes enjoy live music and a festive atmosphere. It’s a perfect and affordable base for exploring the capital city.

Their bathrooms are forever out of order. Water leaking all over without lights. I personally love chilling there to enjoy nature. Generally the staff is very friendly and welcoming

Hoping maintenance will be prioritized.

It's such a wonderful place. Good for picnics, or spending some time with your beloved ones, friends or family members. The swimming pools; garden; and the place in general is well maintained and very clean. There are multiple braai areas, and plenty of shade.

Fountains Valley is a clean, relaxing, and super chill spot for a day out. The pools are refreshing, the picnic areas are spacious, and the whole place has an easy going vibe that makes it perfect for friends and families. A great place to unwind and enjoy nature, definitely worth the visit!

Old-school, leafy city escape with tons of space for picnics and braais. The river and lawns make it easy to let kids roam while adults actually relax. Facilities are basic but serviceable; we found clean ablutions and plenty of bins.

We did a slow walk along the water before settling in with a cooler box. Nothing fancy, just a dependable, green pocket when you want fresh air without a mission.

Nice place to chill with family, coworkers or friends. Enough shades however it is open for gazebos . Bring your own comfortable camping chairs.

Book a lapa for a big group to gain access to the kitchen space with freezers and table tops.
