Sabie - Panarama Route South Africa
Sabie is a small town that lies on the Panarama
Route in Mpumalanga
South Africa. Sabie like
so many of the towns in the area originated as yet another gold rush town. From
the summit of Long
Tom pass the Sabie River flows through a handsome valley to a waterfall where
the town of Sabie has been built. The river’s name is from the Shangaan word meaning
‘fearful’ referring to the crocodiles and sudden floods that formerly made this
river dangerous. Nowadays the trout fishermen are attracted to its fast flowing
waters.
This lovely little town of Sabie has some wonderful hotels and guest houses
and excellent restaurants such as the Loggerhead and the Fig Tree, serving up
fresh local trout as a speciality. The Sabie area is scenically stunning with
so many outdoor activities it is hard to choose from mountain biking, horse
trails, picnics at the top of a waterfall or hiking to the base for a cool dip
in the crystal clear pool. If you are going to stay overnight outside Kruger
National Park, Sabie is a perfect place to rest up and enjoy the scenery.
