Set within the 593-acre (240-hectare) Voortrekker Monument Nature Reserve, the Voortrekker Monument is surrounded by an indigenous garden, open-air amphitheater, and a remembrance wall. In addition to honoring the pioneers at the monument, you can learn more about the Great Trek and the history of the monument in the Hall of Heros and the basement museum. Both the hall’s depictions and the memorabilia in the museum tell the story of the pioneers’ journey.
Visit the site on a guided Pretoria city tour, which includes admission to the monument along with other nearby attractions. You can also explore the reserve on a horseback ride or an educational tour.
