The Cascades at the Botanical
Welcome to the Lowveld National Botanical Garden information page - in addition to guides like this article we also list a varied selection of hotels, B&B's, guesthouses and self-catering establishments. Please check out our Nelspruit page if you're looking for
Nelspruit accommodation. Nelspruit's main attraction is the Lowveld National Botanical Garden. The garden is almost 160ha with 2 rivers running though the middle. During the dry season (from May to September), concerts are often held here.
Nelspuit, Mpumalanga's capital, is often neglected and labeled simply as a stop-over on the way to the Kruger National Park, but these spectacular gardens prove differently.
In addition to attraction guides TravelGround also has a wide selection of
South Africa accommodation. Take a look!
