Veglaer
The site of a three day attack by Zulus on the Voortrekkers’ laager (13-15 February 1838). The actual site is now beneath Wagendrift Dam. A Diorama explains battle and shows the Voortrekkers’ battle tactics.
From Estcourt, take the Wagendrift road and cross over the N3. Take the turn-off marked Moore Park/Blue Haze Country Lodge, and follow the dirt road until you reach Greystone resort. The monument is 700 meters from the entrance to Greystone, below the left side of the road.

Hello
I have an interesting old photo showing the actual larger site at Veglaer (Wagondrift Dam) from 1963 before the dam filled with water. Contact me so that I can send a copy for your records.
Best
