MpumalangaMpumalanga, “the place of the rising sun”, offers the zenith of game viewing in the Kruger National Park as well as various private game reserves, many of which are known worldwide. But the province also offers waterfalls, mountains and adventure activities. Other major attractions include the Blyde River canyon and the historic village of Pilgrim’s Rest. It is home to the Shangaan people as well as the Lowveld, escarpment and bushveld. The romance of the early pioneers and the gold rush lives on at Pilgrim’s rest, a quaint village with many original buildings. From Sabie it is an easy drive to the Mac-Mac Falls and Bourkes-luck potholes. With its sub-tropical climate, the area is famous for fruit, such as litchis, mangoes and bananas. |
