Kloofendal Nature Reserve, Nature reserve in Roodepoort, South Africa.

The 150-hectare reserve contains three distinct ecosystems including Drakensberg, Savannah, and Bankenveld, supporting multiple wildlife species and plant communities.

The Confidence Reef within the reserve marks the location where the Struben brothers discovered the first payable gold in Johannesburg during September 1884.

The preserved gold mine, declared a National Monument in 1983, offers guided tours that present the mining heritage of the Witwatersrand region.

The reserve operates daily from 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM, providing free entry for groups under 20 people and requiring advance bookings for larger gatherings.

The reserve organizes seasonal educational activities such as frog safaris and mushroom identification walks through its diverse natural environment.
