South Africa, 70km<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Panorama Route in the Mpumalanga province is undoubtedly one of the most epic drives in South Africa. Deeply imbued with historical and cultural significance, the route traverses the north-east of the country and offers breathtaking views of mountain scenery, historic sites, picturesque waterfalls – including the candle-shaped Berlin Falls and the 94m Lisbon Falls – and one of the world’s biggest canyons, the Blyde River Canyon. There are multiple scenic viewpoints along the ride, all stunning; don’t miss God’s Window, Wonder View, Lowveld View and the Three Rondavels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want to extend your trip and see more of the local wildlife, consider adding on a safari – the town of Hazyview is a good spot for accommodation, located close to the route and just a short drive from the Phabeni Gate of the Kruger National Park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Starting point
<\/strong>At Graskop, visit the Gorge Lift for great views over Graskop Gorge; you can also head further south from the town for even more epic sights, including the Bridal Veil Falls and Lone Creek Falls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prospectors’ footsteps
<\/strong>The small town of Pilgrim’s Rest was central to South Africa’s gold rush in the 1870s; it has changed little since that time and was declared a National Monument in 1986 in order to preserve its history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
