Nelspruit 2010

Stadium: Mbombela Stadium

Nelspruit lies in the hot lowveld valley of the Crocodile River close to the Kruger National Park.

The climate and soil are such that this heavenly subtropical garden region grows about one-third of the country's citrus fruits as well as papaws, litchis, avocado pears, mangoes, bananas, pecan nuts, tobacco and coffee. Roads are lined with lilac jacaranda, purple bougainvillea and other flamboyant shrubs.

The town itself is quite large but still very pleasant and forms a road and rail link from Pretoria and Johannesburg to Maputo in Mozambique to the south-east, and the Panorama Route and Kruger National Park to the north and north-east.
