ROAD TRIP THROUGH THE PANORAMA ROUTE | EXPLORING WATERFALLS & HIDDEN GEMS | MPUMALANGA, SOUTH AFRICA
Since South Africa has so many long weekends, I decided to make use of this opportunity and arranged a trip to the Lowveld of South Africa, otherwise known as Mpumalanga. Mpumalanga is an incredible province and it was an absolute pleasure exploring this amazing part of our country.
I took along one of my very good friends, Ruan Pretorius, and left for Mpumalanga on the 19th of March. Our first stop was in the Kaapschehoop where we completed 2 hikes, one of which contained a waterfall! Later that day we made our way to Graskop where we stayed at The Graskop Hotel. The next day we made our way to Sabie and did a short little hike to Bridal Veil Falls. Once we've reached the waterfall we decided to do a little activity that will spike the adrenaline. So, we contacted Kestell Adventures and did a canyoning activity to the bottom of Mac Mac Falls. What an awesome experience! We ended off the day by meeting some family members next to the Sabie River and headed back to The Graskop Hotel.
On Sunday we explored the blyde River Canyon and camped out there for the night and on Monday we did a few hikes and drove to Limpopo in the afternoon. As soon as we arrived in Limpopo, we made our way to umVangati House, which was the accommodation we stayed in. Words can't even explain the experience we had there. UmVangati has the most amazing views and this is totally the place to go if you're ever looking for a weekend breakaway.
On our last day, we did another epic hike and made our way home late afternoon.
This trip was another eye-opener of how beautiful our country really is. I hope that this video inspires you to explore our beautiful country and all it has to offer.
Thanks again, stay tuned for more of my travels through South Africa.

A day trip on the PANORAMA ROUTE | South Africa
We recently did a day trip on the world famous Panorama Route in north-eastern South Africa. We visited four of my favourite places along the Panorama Route, namely: The Three Rondavels View Point, Bourke's Luck Potholes, Harrie's Pancakces and the Graskop Gorge Lift.
Graskop Gorge Lift Co:
Harrie's Pancakes in Graskop:
The Three Rondavels is arguably the most beautiful view point along the whole Panorama Route and close to the northern tip of the route, about an hour and a half's drive from Hoedspruit. From the view point you look down over the Blyde River Canyon - the third largest canyon in the world after the Grand Canyon and the Fish River Canyon.
From The Three Rondavels we drove south to Bourke's Luck Potholes, which are stunning geological formations in the Blyde River Canyon at the confluence of the Blyde- and Treur rivers. I hadn't been there since I was 12 years old and it was wonderful to experience it again.
Afterwards, we grabbed some lunch at Harrie's Pancakes in Graskop before heading to the Graskop Gorge Lift Company just south of town. Here we took the lift 51 meters into the gorge below, where a series of walkways and suspension bridges lead us 600m through the indigenous forest. It really is a world class facility, with plenty of excellent and informative information boards along the way. Even though I've never been there, it felt like I was walking in a jungle in Costa Rica!
If you visit South Africa's Kruger National Park or other parts of the Lowveld, you simply have to visit the Panorama Route!
