Area Info
Montana is a peaceful and modern suburb nestled near the foothills of the Magaliesberg Mountains, just northeast of Pretoria. With its lush, subtropical climate and spacious properties, this area offers a gentle retreat from the city's pace, while still being close enough to enjoy everything the capital has to offer.
Originally popular for its small holdings and rural charm, Montana has grown into a vibrant, well-established neighbourhood. Today, it boasts excellent amenities including private hospitals, the popular Kolonnade Shopping Centre, Montana Crossing, a variety of restaurants, and easy access to Wonderboom National Airport — ideal for travellers and business guests alike.
Despite its tranquil feel, Montana is only about 15 kilometres from the heart of Pretoria. That means museums, historic monuments, theatres, and city attractions are just a short drive away, making it a convenient base for both leisure and business stays.
Just across the N1 highway, you’ll find the Roodeplaat Dam Nature Reserve — perfect for outdoor enthusiasts. The northern part of the reserve offers canoeing, fishing, and picnic spots, while the southern section is a peaceful bird sanctuary, ideal for weekend relaxation.
And if you're up for a little adventure, the charming town of Cullinan is not far off. Known for its diamond mining history, visitors can explore quaint miners’ cottages, stroll through the village, or take a guided tour of the mine for a fascinating glimpse into South Africa’s diamond heritage.
Whether you're here for a getaway or a longer stay, Montana offers the perfect blend of calm, comfort, and convenience, making it a favourite for travellers who want the best of both worlds.
