Paddling near Boksburg, Gauteng

Boksburg sits on the East Rand of Gauteng, a largely urban and industrial plateau where natural rivers are modest and most paddling centres on dams and reservoirs. The Klip River is the standout moving-water option in the broader region, running year-round due to managed water releases, while larger impoundments such as Vaal Barrage and Hartbeespoort Dam draw flatwater paddlers further afield.
