ATTRACTIONS:
Your hostess is a fully qualified tour guide for the local battlefields; Isandlwana, Rorke's drift, Blood River and specializes in the Prince Imperial Napoléon IV, who was killed just outside Nqutu.We will take you as the tourist on guided tours to the exact site. Elisabeth presents English and French tours as she is both English and French speaking. Dundee is named the heart of the battlefields as there are 68 battles and skirmish sites nearby.

The Talana Museum is a must and will keep you busy for half a day.Zulu cultural tours must be arranged well in advance where you will be taken on a 4x4 and experience the genuine Zulu culture.

Indumeni means "where the thunder rolls" and the area around this mountain is Endumeni, hence the name of the municipal authority of this area. Situated equidistant between Durban and Johannesburg, with well-established road, rail and air infrastructure, the Endumeni region is the geographic centre of Northern KwaZulu-Natal.

The whole area has a fascinating and multi-faceted history. There are numerous interesting and unusual places to visit, and in doing so you can experience our culture and heritage. The cultural, economic and military history of the area is depicted in the Talana Museum, on the outskirts of Dundee.

The area is home to a number of skilled crafts people. Pottery, wood work, hand knotted carpets, woven grass baskets, Zulu beadwork. Artists and craft people can be seen at work in their own environment.

Currently the main industry is agriculture. The main farming activity is cattle and local livestock sales are among the most lucrative in KwaZulu-Natal. Sheep, dairy and crop farming also form part of the agricultural enterprise. The headquarters of the Natalagri Farmers' Co-operative is situated in Dundee
