Mpumalanga is a stunning region bordering the west of the Kruger National Park and Swaziland and south of Limpopo.
Many visitors pass through on the way from Johannesburg straight to Kruger or KwaZulu-Natal but there are good reasons to linger.
The Blyde River Canyon is one of the world's most spectacular canyons and a drive along the 'Panorama Route' through this section of the Drakensberg Escarpment is a real highlight.
Adventure enthusiasts will find plenty of interest in Mpumalanga and those fresh off safari in the Kruger often enjoy a night or two to wind down in one of Mpumalanga's boutique hotels.
