点评:If you love photography or just appreciate raw natural power, Mac Mac Falls is a highlight you cannot miss. It’s easily one of the most beautiful and iconic stops in Mpumalanga.
Spectacular Views
The sight of the twin falls plunging 65 meters into the forested gorge below is absolutely scenic. Originally a single stream, gold miners blasted the rock in the 1800s, creating the stunning double-drop effect we see today. If you’re lucky with the light, you’ll often see rainbows dancing in the mist at the bottom of the gorge.
Easy Access
The walk from the parking area to the viewing platform is short and paved, making it very accessible. The platform itself is well-secured with safety mesh (though you can still get a great clear shot with your phone/camera through the gaps). It’s a quick stop, but the scale of the cliffs and the lush green surroundings make it feel truly grand.
Pro-Tip: Visit the Pools Nearby
While you can’t swim at the main falls, make sure to drive just 2km further to the Mac Mac Pools. It’s a great spot to have a picnic and take a dip in the crystal-clear mountain water to cool off!
翻译:如果您热爱摄影,或者只是欣赏大自然的磅礴气势,那么麦克麦克瀑布 (Mac Mac Falls) 绝对是您不容错过的景点。它堪称姆普马兰加省最美丽、最具标志性的景点之一。
壮丽景色
双瀑布从65米高的悬崖倾泻而下,汇入下方森林覆盖的峡谷,景色美不胜收。最初这里只是一条溪流,19世纪淘金者炸毁岩石,造就了如今我们所见的壮观双瀑布景观。如果光线合适,您还能在峡谷底部看到彩虹在薄雾中舞动。
交通便利
从停车场到观景台的步行路程很短,而且路面铺设平整,非常方便。观景台本身也用安全网严密保护(不过您仍然可以透过网眼用手机/相机拍摄清晰的照片)。虽然这里只是短暂的停留,但巍峨的悬崖和郁郁葱葱的周边环境,却让人感觉无比震撼。
小贴士:去附近的潭水游玩
虽然主瀑布不能游泳,但一定要驱车再往前2公里,去麦克麦克潭 (Mac Mac Pools) 看看。那里是野餐和在清澈见底的山泉水中畅游消暑的绝佳地点!
