Hunter's Road (10)

Scenically, the route is quite incredible.

The first part of the journey north from Ngwahla is some what trying with much stunded mopane countryside to negotiate, but then follows stretches of beautiful broad-leaved woodland and pans and plenty of game.

As you approach the Deka River and Mpandamatenga, you reach high basalt terrain, where you enjoy majestic views over vast tracts of country.
There are well-wooded hilltops and wide, meandering valleys lines with swathes of tall grass through which streams make their way.

This is Africa much as it must have appeared to those who travelled this way 150 years ago.
Just south of Mpandamatenga is an astonishing grove of giant white-stem acacia (Acacia polyacantha), so tall that it looks like a hilltop looming on the distant horizon.
