Blyde River Canyon

Introduction

Blyde River Canyon is one of South Africa most spectacular natural wonders, recognised as the third largest canyon in the world. Located at the eastern foot of the Drakensberg Mountains in Mpumalanga, the canyon was carved by the Blyde River over millions of years, reaching depths of 750 metres. Along the canyon are famous viewpoints including the Three Rondavels, God Window and Bourke Luck Potholes, offering breathtaking views of tropical rainforest intertwined with rivers. It is one of the steepest green canyons in the world, with dense vegetation, cascading waterfalls, and is a paradise for photographers and nature explorers. Rich birdlife and wildlife can be spotted along the way.
