The Amajuba Buhle-Bomzinyathi Route cuts across from the Amajuba Drakensberg Route eastwards along the southern side of the Chelmsford Game Reserve to cross the N11 and pass through the town of Dannhauser and the village of Hattingspruit.
From the route one gets some wide panoramic views of the Drakensberg and Balele Mountain escarpments as well as across the Ntshingwayo Dam. The Dannhauser area is primarily rolling open farmland where cattle and maize are the main products.
The main town is Dannhauser, which along with the village of Durnacol originally served the old, now defunct Durban Navigational Collieries that mined coal for the export and domestic markets. Now that the coal has been worked out and the mine is closed these two towns service the large farming community and the new coalmine at Springlake, which lies midway between Dannhauser and Hattingspruit.
The village of Hattingspruit sits on the banks of the very attractive Tom Worthington Dam and it is here you will find a number of homely B&B establishments catering for the fishing fraternity.
The Dannhauser and Hattingspruit areas are also known for dairy farming.
Stay in a thatched rondavel at the Kwalanga B&B.
