The Barberton Makhonjwa Geotrail is a self-drive scenic route through the Barberton Makhonjwa Mountains World Heritage Site, accessible via the R40 between Barberton and the Bulembu border post. According to multiple sources, there is no entrance fee required to drive the Geotrail; it is free of charge for self-guided visits[5]. This allows visitors to explore the 37-38 km route, enjoy the interpretive panels at each geosite, and take in the views without any ticket or admission costs[1].
If you opt for a guided tour, there may be charges associated with the guide’s services and any additional offerings such as a pop-up lunch, which is available by prior arrangement at a fee (e.g., R150 per person for lunch)[4]. However, accessing the trail and its geosites as a self-drive experience does not require payment or booking in advance[3].
