Area Info

Haenertsburg

Known as the capital of the land of the Silver Mists, this enchanting corner of the Limpopo Province forms a natural gateway both to and from the Kruger National Park. Birdlife in the area is prolific, with Knysna and Purple Crested Loeries, several species of eagles and the very rare black fronted bush shrike. Over 187 species of birds have been identified on the mountain.

Plant life enthusiasts will be overwhelmed at the diversity of plant life. Some of South Africa's most beautiful indigenous forests and grasslands occur here. The best known trees are yellow-woods, stinkwoods and cabbage trees. An exotic tree, the blue-gum, is the tallest man-planted tree in the world. The forests and grasslands are home to an incredible variety of plants and ferns.
