Overview
3About Driefontein
Driefontein lies in the Mpumalanga highveld near the KwaZulu-Natal border, reached mainly via the R543 off the N11. Piet Retief, 49 km off, handles most daily runs, while longer trips head to Wakkerstroom or Paulpietersburg through farmland and plantations. Visitors travelling from as far as Vereeniging or Thohoyandou show it draws people for family or farming ties rather than passing traffic. Ermelo Airport, 84 km away, is your nearest flight option. No EV chargers in town, so juice up in Piet Retief first. Fun fact: the name means "three fountains", after the springs that once fed the local farms.
