A Guide to Accommodation, Activities, Restaurants and Businesses in Winterton, South Africa

Winterton is located at the start of central  Drakensberg in KwaZulu Natal.  Three years after the Anglo-Boer War, the colonial government constructed a weir across the Little Thukela River where it became a small irrigation settlement named Springfield until 1910, after which it was renamed Winterton.

Every year in July the town comes alive with activity for the street carnival.  This is the towns opportunity to showcase a variety of local artists and crafters, along with musicians; bringing visitors from all over to enjoy the town at its best.
