Eswatini keeps surprising everyone and no-where more than in the Mnyokane and Maguga Dam region where Sobantu Guest Farm is located. The farm on which this new tourism project is situated was initially acquired for mostly environmental and residential reasons.
Bird watching is great in and around our indigenous forest, which contours our mountain. Catch the small mammals, like rockdassies at their daily chores. Climb our mountain and see Pigg's Peak/ Maphalaleni / skyline of Siteki / Mnyokane Valley...Hike in any direction and meet only friendly Swazis who will want to know about where you come from, why you are visiting Eswatini. Some will want to feed you. Sobantu stands out as a landmark so you can't get lost even if you hike 15km away.
Every mountain pass crossing will strike you with new views on pristine swazi landscapes. Take a mountain bike if you want to do it faster and test your biking skills. The Nkomati Valley flooded to become the Maguga Dam stands out as one of the most beautiful valleys in Southern Africa. Hawane dam is a bird breeding spot for the Malolotja Nature Reserve. Stop for a picnic and paddle back to where we will pick you up at the agreed time or camp overnight at a friendly homestead halfway the length of the Dam and enjoy the local specialities, like wild spinach, pumpkin leaves cooked to perfection with the Swazi staple food, the mealie porridge.
