About Roodeplaat

Roodeplaat is a small settlement in Gauteng Province, located approximately 30 kilometres northeast of Pretoria. The area is best known for the Roodeplaat Dam, a popular recreational spot that attracts anglers, bird watchers, and water sport enthusiasts throughout the year.

Roodeplaat sits in the northeastern reaches of Gauteng, straddling the border with Mpumalanga Province. The settlement takes its name from the Roodeplaat Dam, which was constructed in 1959 on the Pienaars River. This 1,063-hectare reservoir serves as both a water supply facility and a recreational resource for the greater Pretoria region. The dam's relatively shallow waters and surrounding grasslands create an environment that supports diverse wildlife and plant species.

The dam is particularly popular among bass fishermen, with the waters holding healthy populations of largemouth bass, carp, and various other freshwater species. The Roodeplaat Dam Nature Reserve surrounds the water body and provides access to several picnic sites, walking trails, and bird hides. More than 250 bird species have been recorded in the area, including various waterfowl, raptors, and seasonal migrants. The reserve also supports populations of antelope and smaller mammals.

Visitors to the area will find several facilities catering to outdoor recreation. The Roodeplaat Dam Aquatic Club offers sailing and other water-based activities, while the shoreline provides spots for launching small boats and canoes. The surrounding farmlands and smallholdings give the area a rural character despite its proximity to Pretoria. Several restaurants and farm stalls operate in the vicinity, offering local produce and traditional South African meals.

Those seeking Roodeplaat accommodation will find options ranging from self-catering cottages to guesthouses in the surrounding area. The location provides convenient access to Pretoria's eastern suburbs and is within reasonable driving distance of the N1 and N4 highways. The Roodeplaat Research Laboratories, a veterinary research facility, is also located nearby and has historical significance in South African science.

The climate in Roodeplaat follows the typical Highveld pattern, with warm, wet summers and cool, dry winters. Summer afternoons often bring thunderstorms, while winter mornings can be quite cold. The best times for visiting are during autumn and spring when temperatures are moderate and the landscape displays seasonal changes in vegetation.
