Cattle Trek Route (2)

One of the main routes to the north was known simply as the Cattle Trek Route, and so it remains to this day.

A feature of the drive along this track is the extraordinarily beautiful landscape.

Notable for its vegetation, it changes from grasslands to mopane woodland and, occasionally, to glorious "cathedral" mopane.

Most memorable - especially towards the northern end of the journey (which is a good day's drive that definitely demands a 4x4) - are the magnificent mongongo nut trees, also known as "manketti" to many South Africans.
Mongongo are a very important Bushmen food item, containing high levels of vitamine C.
