The Loskop Dam wall was built in the 1930's across a nearby gorge. In the 1970's the dam wall was raised, flooding more of the valley. The dam is approximately 30km long and supplies water to a vast irrigation scheme in the areas of Loskop, Groblersdal and Marble Hall. The Loskop Nature Reserve is situated 55km North of Middelburg with Groblersdal to the North and Bronkhorstspuit to the South West. At the heart of the reserve is the Loskop Irrigation Dam nestling in the Oliphants River Valley. Originally a small reserve was proclaimed around the then existing dam in the 1950's. As time passed the size of the reserve has been increased with the acquisition of neighbouring farms and now covers 23 000ha of which 2350ha is water surface. Accommodation in close proximity of the Loskop Dam Nature Reserve is available at Middelburg and Marble Hall. Activities at Loskop Dam
