Explore galleries of gnarled rocks or caves as you make your way to the edge of the escarpment (20 minutes walk) ,where the earth drops a 1000 metres into the Barberton valley below,on a moonlit night the local pass time,tipple and picnic blanket in hand,is to stroll up to the edge where you can see the lights of Nelspruit and Barberton 30 kms away.Or go up to see the sun rise over the Swazi Mountains.
The village itself has restaurants,bars,antiques and craft shops the Colonial style often interspersed with the quirky and esoteric,as many of the 120 or so locals are artists or crafts people.Watch out for the Wild Horses,they can sometimes give you a fright ,especially if they suddenly come looming out of the mist.No Spar or Petrol Station,the one small tuck shop we do have may have bread,milk or your brand of cigarettes so make sure you are well provisioned when you arrive,although the scenic drive down to Nelspruit is only about 20 minutes with no robots or stop streets till you reach the City and it s convenient shopping Malls (almost on every corner lol)
