It is definitely an awesome entertainment centre well worth a visit!

Northcliff is incredibly well situated with easy access to a number of major shopping malls.

Northcliff’s large homes lay on pretty tree lined streets that wend their way up the cliff, the views are superlative.

This is made up predominantly of hard smooth quartzite, offers a number of natural climbs for avid rock climbing fans. Enjoy a stroll along Northcliff’s Ridge, the second highest in Johannesburg at 1 807m to admire the views and in spring time, enjoy the sea of purple Jacaranda blossoms which is a unique feature of the Koppie. The routes are relatively short and the view from the top of Northcliff ridge is excellent - the whole of the northern suburbs lie as a carpet before you- and on a clear day, one can see as far as Sandton and beyond. At night the city lights appear to be a thousand twinkling stars. Northcliff Ridge is the site of historical interest, where vultures once flew and Moselekatse, Shaka’s general, resided with his followers, before being pushed out bye the Voortrekkers.
