Pilgrim's Rest is the perfect stopover for those who love exploring the past. Carefully restored and painstakingly maintained, this site is alive with memories of a fascinating era; the mad rush for gold, frantic searches, endless digging, the awe with which an entire town springs to life near mining communities, the fervent hopes for gold, it's all here!

Located on the stunning Panorama Route on the eastern Escarpment region of the Mpumalanga province, this beautiful site has many tales to tell the eager listeners. Surrounded by the best of African natural wonders and steeped in its rich historic past, this is the opportunity of a lifetime. There are numerous museums and historic sites that will paint an interesting picture of this dazzling era. The Central information office will fill you in on the town's distinguished characters from the past while the Dredzen Shop and House Museum gives a glimpse into the daily life of the original merchants of the town. Check out the the Sacred Heart Church or St Mary's Church if you love intricate architecture. If you would love to know more about the hard life of the pioneering miners, then Digging Museum & Gold Panning is the place for you; it details the methods and workmanship of the early miners, their trials and tribulations and their strenuous efforts as they chased after a dream.

Thus, it comes as no surprise that this stunning town was declared a National Monument. Visit this quaint town and bask in the charms of a by-gone era. There's always a bit natural goodness to indulge even on a cultural excursions; take a break from wandering amidst the rustic buildings and perhaps a casual stroll to ponder on what you have learnt – there's plenty of hiking and trout fishing spots in this exquisite area.
