Booking

Malgas, formerly called Malagas, is a small village which boasts the only remaining pont in South Africa. The pont has been in operation since 1860 and is operational during daylight hours and has a maximum capacity of three cars or 10ton. Here and there you can still see old road signs with the original Malagas name, like the Malagas Hotel. Either way, both names will take you to the same place. History quote : 'The name of the village was originally Malagas but was changed to Malgas because in the olden days, post for the village ended up in Malaga Spain!'.
