About 2 km (1.2 mi) from the spectacular 70 m (230 ft) tall Mac Mac falls, the pools offer a tranquil, pristine natural setting. Splash around in the clear stream pools, deep enough for a good plunge. Explore the wildlife with lush vegetation, dragonflies, and water plants, or hike along the secretary bird trail to observe these magnificent creatures roaming the grasslands. The area has picnic, barbecue, and restroom facilities. PutMac Mac Pools into our Sabie travel route planner and find out what's close by, where to stay, and where to head next.
