After 28 kilometres of curves at the top of the mountains, the road lead me to a remote and not too much used swaziland border. Right passed the border is the local curiosity : the longest cable of the world (about 20 kilometres ) built to carry minerals from a mine.

Following the border are 10 kilometres of rather bad gravel road. The landscape is still nice and by riding on the side of the road to admire it I got the first puncture of the trip.

North western Swaziland is all hilly and a very nice place to visit. I eventualy got invited overnight and got offered a nice guided tour of the area.

On my way south, the rest of the country is slightly more flat and lower.going down to South Africa.
