Swaziland – Usutu River Jan 2007

The Kingdom of Swaziland, one of only two Kingdom’s in Southern Africa and also the smallest country in Africa. Swaziland is mostly mountainous and hilly in the west but has more moderately sloping plains towards the east. The best whitewater being in the western half of the country. The highest point is Emlembe at 1862 metres above sea level and the lowest point on the Great Usutu river at a very low of only 21 metres! It is on this river that we had much fun during this trip. The Swazi name for the Usutu being the Lusutfu.
