Magoebaskloof — Local services in Greater Tzaneen Local Municipality

It is always better in September: Spectacular Cheerio Gardens, Spring Festival at Haenertsburg, Ebenezer Dam with 3-story homes.

Please image-google all this stuff.

As Roxanne Reid puts it: "Nature lovers come for the forests, waterfalls and birding, adventure lovers for a flock of adrenalin activities."

This place is so spectacular: "...the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands".

It is closed to the truly peaceful Debengeni Falls that are surrounded by an amazing hilly forest. You can even meditate here....

Along Route 71, there is a tea plantation with a tea garden and when there are blue skies, you experience an inner peace like no other, because you are on top of a plateau.

Magoebaskloof is closed to Mdjadjiskloof, where there are 13-meter cycads, which we cannot find anywhere else.

In a way, visiting Magoebaskloof ends up being an exciting but peaceful spiritual...

En route from Pretoria to the Kruger National Park we decided to go via the Magoesbaskloof Pass as we were entering the park at one of its more northern gates. This was an excellent decision! The pass is beautiful with great scenic views as you meander down the valley, including some lookout points where you can pull over and take in the natural splendour. This is one of those slow and steady passes with sharp bends and rare opportunities for over-taking, so you might as well just enjoy the journey. It is quiet steep so when going down make sure your brakes are working optimally and going up make sure your vehicle has enough power. This is truly one of the most beautiful passes in South Africa and needs to be on your bucket list while in the Tzaneen...

Without a doubt, this is one of the most scenic destinations in South Africa. The natural forests, as well as the different birds that you find here. It is a bird watchers dream.

It is however not easy to do some birding here - you mostly only hear the bird sounds and do not see the birds. I suggest that you familiarise yourself in advance with the bird songs, otherwise you might get frustrated.

For nature lovers and tree enthusiasts - this is a real paradise to visit. The forest is so lush, words can not describe it, the smell, the fog amongst the trees, the sounds of the forest.

If you have not been here before, then definitely add it to...
