Following a water bird count which revealed 73 different species of water birds living in the Vaal area, the Vaal dam was proclaimed an Important Birding Area (IBA) in 2003. The opulence of birdlife is still observed today.
"The routes will provide the local community, as well as visitors from other areas, with the opportunity to increase their knowledge of birds and simply enjoy viewing the different species that make up the rich birdlife in the area," said Keith Attwell, GM of the Vaalnest Boutique Hotel.
