The Goedehoop natural rock bridge is a provincial heritage site in Ermelo in the Mpumalanga province of South Africa.

In 1982 it was described in the Government Gazette as

This natural sandstone bridge over the Vaal River is approximately 22 metres long, five to eight metres wide and four metres high. Large natural rock bridges are rare landforms and this bridge, therefore, can justly be regarded as one of South Africa's geomorphologic gems.
