Make sure to wear comfortable shoes as there are LOTS of stairs to climb. The monument is quite well kept.

A private visit to the Voortrekker Monument with guests from Malta proved most interesting and considerably more accessible than visits of the past. The installation of various aids (railings on the steps), an indoor lift and a toilet for disabled visitors helped make the visit easier and more complete. The Monument and its surrounding gardens and game reserve are all in good condition and well maintained. The quilting exhibition in the basement surrounding the plinth made this rather austere part of the Momunment more welcoming and friendly. The views from the top of the Monument are breathtaking particularly during Jacaranda Season when the splashes of purple colour enliven the capital city. Allow plenty of time to also explore the surrounding gardens and indigenous plants. A visit to the Voortrekker Monument is worth the effort of climbing those endless stairs.

This place has the most amazing historical frieze sculpted from Quercetta marble. There are 27 panels telling the story of the great trek.
The view from the top of the monument is fabulous - well worth the climb.
Take time to walk along the wagon laager wall too.
