Paddling near Mafikeng, North West


Mafikeng sits in the North West province on the semi-arid highveld, far from South Africa's coastal paddling hotspots. The area's paddling centres on inland still waters and seasonal rivers, with Disaneng Dam the most accessible flatwater option close to town and the Groot-Marico River drawing paddlers further afield for a more natural river experience.
