Roodeplaat Nature Reserve
Roodeplaat Nature Reserve is located on the shores of the Roodeplaat Dam, 22 km north-east of Pretoria, Gauteng.
In 1972 the Department of Water Affairs and Forestry delegated the management of the Roodeplaat Dam area to the Nature Conservation division of the Transvaal Provincial Administration. Their mandate was to develop the area as a nature reserve and outdoor recreation facility for Pretoria's residents. The reserve was proclaimed in 1977.
