Malelane is a small town in Mpumalanga close to the Kruger National Park. It is only 43km from the Mocambique border and the Swaziland border at Matsomo is also only 43km away.

Only a couple of kilometers outside Malelane is one of the gates to Kruger Park making it possible to use Malelane as base whilst exploring the southern parts of the Kruger Park. Game drives and walks are just some of the activities offered and the large variety of indigenous plants and trees make the area a very good spot for bird lovers.

The surrounds of this rather hot part of the country are either given over to rolling fields of sugarcane, tropical fruits or game farms. It’s a laid-back, friendly town and life slows down to a peaceful and casual crawl, due in no small way to the pervasive heat and to the less insistent pace of nature.
