16.4km's from Graskop to Pilgrim's Rest Pilgrim's Rest (Afrikaans: Pelgrimsrus) is a small museum town in the Mpumalanga province of South Africa which is protected as a provincial heritage site. It was the second of the Transvaal gold fields, attracting a rush of prospectors in 1873, soon after the Mac Mac diggings started some 5 kilometers (3.1 mi) away

It is absolutely amazing to see how the power of water has carved out the potholes as they are famously know as. Here and there you will get a glimmer of light shining from below from the local inhabitant fish too. Just breathtaking.

Above Scenic is what I would call these three individual giant pieces of rock formation, I was told by a friend that there are fauna and flaura that have never mutated since those pieces have been cut off from the mainland. Fascinating

What makes Blyde River Canyon unique?
Unlike the Grand and Fish River Canyon, the Blyde River Canyon is a "green canyon" which is dominated by subtropical vegetation. The Blyde River Canyon passes a rock formation known as the "Three Rondavels". So named as the formation resembles three African-style houses or rondavels.

Hiking
Here you can have a place to stop over for a meal or even have a look at the hikes they have on their property. Friends of mine enjoy the Leopard hike if would recommend that you have some level of fitness for this hike. It is well worth the hike for the great swim at the waterfall at the end. And Yes you can swim here even in winter, you will see when you have done this hike that the need for a cooling down session is so well deserved

Wear non-slip shoes on sight seeing
Also pack something warm even for the Summer months as it can get chilly after a Summer thunderstorm when the wind comes up. I am not talking about layers just something light to wear.

Winter months in the Lowveld is tricky
Please be aware that winter in the Lowveld and the the escarpment is tricky. Day time temperatures can easily tease us with temp of 22 even up to 24 degrees Celsius. However the night time temperature is something to be aware of. Please do pack accordingly as it can get bitterly cold with temperatures as low as 4 degrees on the escarpment at night.

No Public Transport is available
Unfortunately there is now public transport available in South Africa. However it is safe to rent a vehicle and do a self-drive experience. Another alternative is to book day excursions or a guided tour.
