The Mpumalanga area is one of great contrast, bordered in the west by towering escarpment with lush forests, crystal-clear streams and plunging waterfalls, and then falling away into the flat Lowveld, home to one of the richest diversities of fauna and flora in the world. A number of private reserves and the renowned Kruger National Park are located in this area.
