3About Ingwavuma
Ingwavuma sits right up in northern KZN against the Eswatini border, reached by turning off the N2 at Mkuze or Hluhluwe and taking the R22 up through the Lubombo Mountains past Jozini Dam. Locals nip through to Ubombo (64 km) and Mkuze (75 km) for supplies and fuel, while long-haul visitors from as far as Port Elizabeth and Carletonville make the trek for the game reserves. Mkuze Airport is your closest option for flying in. EV charging is scarce this far out, so fill up before the climb. The real draw is Tembe Elephant Park nearby, home to some of the last free-roaming elephant herds on the Mozambique border.
