“Nelspruit, in the Crocodile River valley is the capital of Mpumalanga. It lies 330 km east of Johannesburg in the beautiful Lowveld of South Africa, The Lowveld National Botanical Garden Northwest of the town on the Crocodile river is worth a visit. Also see the crocodile farm in the same area.. The Kruger Park Malelane Gate (+27 (0)13 735 6152), is about 60 kilometres to the east but requires crossing the tollgate at Malelane (±R40). Phabeni Gate, near Hazyview, (+27 (0)13 735 589075) is about 75Km to the North.” - Chris Smit, 2009/12/12
