INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT
PHALABORWA
 According to geologists, about
2000 years ago a spectacular volcanic eruption took place in the Phalaborwa
area. As a direct result a gigantic volcanic pipe was formed.
This volcanic pipe is richly
loaded with minerals and metals such as copper, mica, gold, iron, vermiculite,
phosphate and zirconium.
Hundreds of years ago Sotho
tribes first settled in the area bounded by the Olifants and Lethaba rivers.
They soon realized they were settling into an unfavourable area and relocated
back to this fertile bushveld valley.
They named the area Phalaborwa
and settled here. Evidence of mining in clay smelting ovens of iron and copper
abound in the area.
The name Phalaborwa means
"better than the South".
Today Phalaborwa is known as
the true Gateway to the world famous Kruger National Park, and is situated less
than 2km from the gate.
Phalaborwa is also
affectionately known as the "Town of Two Summers". It experiences mild winters.
Summer days, which can get very hot, are made bearable by modern aids such as
air-conditioners, fans and swimming pools.
Visitors can do all their
shopping right here, as the town is neatly laid out with shopping malls and
banking facilities, and all the major chain stores are represented.
Phalaborwa offers a vast and
varied range of accommodation, and a vast range of opportunities to view
wildlife up close and personal.
Safaris, walking trials, river
safaris down the Olifants river, all of these experiences are structured to
offer you, the visitor, a unique holiday experience!
