This northeast corner of South Africa is dominated by the massive
Kruger national park, which runs for 350km along the border with Mozambique and the majority of international visitors simply fly in and out of the region for a short safari.
For those wishing to take a broader look at the region, to the west of Kruger lie the Mpumulanga Drakensburg mountains, whose dramatic scenery, temperate climate and huge range out outdoorsy activities make for a great contrast with the hot game areas of the lowveld.
Panorama South is the more commonly visited, although there are also some interesting options in
Panorama North.
More obscure are the rather remote reserves and mountain retreats of the
Limpopo Northeast area.
