This historic town offers notable attractions, including the 1907 sandstone-and-brick town hall, a designated national monument, and the Harrismith Wildflower Gardens, a botanical garden established in 1967 showcasing the flora of the Drakensberg region and providing a scenic picnic spot.

Harrismith is also a gateway to the Drakensberg Mountains, making it a convenient stop for those stocking up on supplies or embarking on excursions into the mountains.
