The Blyde River Canyon, officially the Motlatse Canyon is a significant natural feature of South Africa, located in Mpumalanga, and forming the northern part of the Drakensberg escarpment. Located in the Blyde River Canyon Nature Reserve, it is 25 kilometres in length and is, on average, around 750 metres deep.
The Potholes were named after a gold digger, Tom Burke, who staked a claim nearby. Although his claim did not produce a single ounce of gold, he correctly predicted that large gold deposits would be found in the area.

Open air cooking, beer on ice, this is an authentic South African experience
Who would expect a great dining experience in a restaurant without electricity, without a state of the art kitchen and the loo a long drop with a wide opening as window from where to enjoy the view? Welcome to Potluck Boskombuis!Situated on the Panorama Route, about 26km outside of Graskop you will find this quaint open-area restaurant where food is cooked on open fires and beers kept cold on ice. Boskombuis was a jealously guarded secret of the locals, but the experience was too good not to talk about. Now tourists from all over are flocking there to relax next to the Treur River and enjoy a hearty meal served on tin plates. It is a restaurant with no pretence other than the beauty of the area and the authenticity of the food served. Brainchild of Daan de Klerk, Boskombuis was originally created for his friends to keep him company during the lonely fire season. It was meant to be small and personal but word quickly spread and without any advertising it soon became so popular that Daan’s daughter Mareli had to take over the management on a full time basis. Mareli is responsible for the delightful decor that is so in tune with the atmosphere and environment. And where any other restaurant locks its doors at the end of the day, she has to oversee moving all equipment to safe storage.
Die Boskombuis op die Erasmusplaas word deur Tripadvisor as die beste restaurant in Sabie omgewing aanbeveel. 'n Familie besigheid, waar pa, ma seun en dogter saamwerk om kos te maak en bedien. Ys moet elke keer aangedra word, omdat daar geen krag is nie, en kos word op oop vure gemaak. Alles word daagliks ingedra. Tafels kyk uit op die rivier. Jy kan kaalvoet in die water sit en bier drink.....n great blended family kuier.
