Emmarentia Dam Parking

Great place to spend time with family and friends.

Be advised:
When wanting to use to the venue to host a party or anything along those lines, you need to have a written permission and you can get that at Braamfontein at the office.

Safey:
Please ensure that you are safe because the place has homeless people loitering. When you go to the restrooms and ensure you go with someone or just be vigilant.

The parking is part of the national botanical gardens precinct but separate. Large open space with plenty of trees and space to run around in. The water area is for the sightseeing only. I loved the labels on the trees giving a little info about them. Would like that to be more comprehensive. Plenty of Egyptian geese with a small Scattering of other bird life. I assume they are fed by people because they are following us all around. We did not feed them...

Its a nice place away from the hustle and bustle of town, I wasn't even aware that there was this little Dam that has a host of recreational sports that one can do, the place is well kept and there are security guards present which is great, they often host sporting events from some
brief internet searching I did, all in all a very nice family day outing spot.

The area had been mowed and given a general clean up. A lovely place to have a small picnic lunch. Security people were discreet and friendly. A place to take overseas visitors as we did.

Nice and relaxing place. Huge and im sure you will find a spot to call your own. Was pleasantly surprised on how well the upkeep is. Security was friendly and was able to point me in the direction i needed to go. Make a point to visit and remember your water and maybe a snack.

So we came here for a birthday party, we went to the rose gardens and really just chilled it's a spot that honestly is one of the best kept secrets in joburg, so when u come in through main entrance turn right go up for about 500 meters and u will see the area on your right, keep going up for different views. Only issue I found was that the fountains were all dry :( sad because it's so beautiful....

Safe and secure parking for peace of mind while using the beautiful garden facilities. A lovely place for picnics, walks and cycling. Has many Pokestops and Gyms for Pokémon GO.
