"One highlight was the incredible Blyde River Canyon, which I found to be one of the largest canyons in the world, generally considered the largest “green” canyon because it is lush with flora, and is described as the second-largest canyon in Africa." - Matthew Kepnes
"A dramatic natural canyon renowned for sweeping vistas and striking rock formations, commonly visited as a highlight of nearby scenic drives and lookout trails." - SilverKris
"Traversing Blyde River Canyon showcased another of South Africa's outstanding natural wonders, with dramatic scenery that underlines the country's astonishing variety of landscapes." - SilverKris
"Celebrated as the largest green canyon on the planet, this landscape features a massive domed outcrop and the iconic Three Rondavels—rock formations resembling indigenous huts. Visitors can hike on trails of easy to moderate difficulty (hikes can be organised through Thaba Tsweni Lodge) or simply drive to scenic viewpoints and enjoy a picnic while taking in the vistas." - SilverKris
"Noted as the world’s largest ‘green’ canyon, this South African gorge combines vast scale with lush vegetation, offering spectacular, verdant scenery that contrasts with more arid canyon environments." - SAUL LIPCHIK
