Pilgrim's Rest, is a small historical town in Mpumalanga. Many of the original buildings from the 1873 gold rush have been restored and the town today serves as a living museum for that period.

Sabie to Pilgrim's Rest

Distance is around 33km

Cross the Sabie River and follow the R532 towards Graskop .

About 13km from Sabie you will find the Mac-Mac Falls on the right hand side of the road. The short walk (less than 100m) to the view area is not paved and can at times be very uneven, take care not to slip and fall.

The falls have two streams that plunge 56m deep into a gorge and got it's name from the large number of Scots that dug for gold in the area during the gold rush of the 1870's. Unfortunately the only good views of the falls are from caged steel constructions on the edge of the cliff face. This makes it rather difficult to get any good photos.

As with most tourist attractions, there are stalls selling curious and local art and handcraft next to the parking area.

A little further along the road, on your left, you will find a plaque commemorating Jock of the Bushveld.

23km from Sabie the R533 joins the R532 from the left, you need to take this turn and follow the R533 for about 10km towards Pilgrim's Rest.
