Harrismith Tourism
In the shadow of Platberg, lies the jewel of the Freestate. Harrismith, with its host of activities, historical sites and beautiful surroundings has long been merely a stop-over along the way somewhere. But if you take the turn off, you will be pleasantly surprised by the little town that awaits. Driving through the streets lined with old leafy trees, Harrismith is sure to find its way to any tourist’s heart. Discovery Harrismith Mountain Race 15km - 08 Oct 2011 "Wally Hayward said the Discovery Harrismith Mountain Race is the toughest race that he has ever done, and he is arguably the best Comrades Runner ever" Drakensberg Mountain Retreat It has a spectacular setting, high on a ridge overlooking the northern Drakensberg, the Maluti mountains and most of the central Drakensberg. Many have said that the views we have of the Drakensberg are unsurpassed. Oaklands Country Manor "The setting is beautiful and there is so much to do - walking, hiking, mountain biking, horse riding, polo, fishing - you name it!"

Life under the Platberg "Really? I didn't know it was there...." Louise folded her arms over a corduroy jacket and thought for a while. "I've been to the graveyard a few times but I haven't heard of Paulina," she said. |
