    God's Window
    You know there’s a place in the province called “God’s Window”, but what you didn’t know is that this is the only place in the world where you can find the exquisite plant called Streptocarpus fenestra-dei, meaning: The window of God!

    Wildlife
  • Tip Rating:
  • With a variety of national and private game parks in this province, you are spoilt for choice for viewing wildlife!

    And I am talking about the Big 5 and all the many other animals that dont get the same 'air-time' as the Big 5, but are just as important and needed :)

    All types of bird- and insect life abound. It is a fertile and lush area, with much beauty in the environment as well as in it's animal-life.

    Near Gods window there is a trail to the rainforest. Not a long trail and certainly worth walking. The plantlife is great. And at the end there is another great view of the Drakensbergen.

    The Krugerpark is partly in Mpumalanga province. More about this park (we visited 5 times) on our Krugerpark page.

    When to go
    Usually my favorite season for traveling is spring, when new life and blossoming takes place. It happened that late spring (September and October) is also the best time for game viewing. The "shoulder" seasons - spring and autumn - are best for hiking, as summer can be hot with summer thunderstorms. If you are planning to visit the "Garden Route" as well, the southern right whales hang around the coasts from about mid-June to the end of October.
    So October it was, and the weather was really great
