Located in the heart of Southern Gauteng, formerly known as the Vaal Triangle, 58km from Johannesburg, Vereeniging has its origins in the discovery of coal in the area in 1878. Over the years Vereeniging has developed into a major industrial centre, and with some of the country's richest coal deposits found in the region, it is one of the largest producers of electric power in South Africa. Its location on the banks of the Vaal River and its close proximity to the Vaal Dam makes Vereeniging a popular weekend escape for those wishing to take a break from everyday city life. Boating, swimming and angling are only some of the activities to be enjoyed along the banks of the Vaal.
