This cave with incredible rock paintings of the San (the ancestors of the Bushmen) is located on the northern flank of the Nkomati Valley, between Maguga Dam and Piggs Peak. These are the best preserved in eSwatini. They date back more than 4,000 years and were skillfully made by hunter-gatherers. The line is fine and harmonious, with red ochre and animal blood. They represent mystical scenes, with animals, humans and symbols. Bring good sneakers, the slope is steep. The profits are donated to the community of Nswangwini.

Visite très intéressante. Par contre ce n'est pas si facile que ça d'y arriver. Il faut bien suivre les panneaux et un 4x4 est probablement plus sûr qu'une petite voiture de location ;) Une guide vous rejoindra et moyennant R50 par personne vous marcherez environ 20 min avant de voir ces très belles peintures rupestres au milieu de la foret à flanc de montagne. La guide vous expliquera en anglais l'histoire liée à ces peintures et vous ramènera ensuite au parking une fois que vous aurez pris vos photos. Prévoyez de bonnes chaussures :)
