Ngwenya Iron Mine, one of the world's oldest mines, is a significant historical and geological site in Eswatini (formerly Swaziland). Visitors can explore the ancient mining operations and learn about the area's rich cultural heritage. Accessibility information is limited, but the site is generally rugged and may present challenges for those with mobility issues. Guided tours are recommended to fully understand the historical context and archaeological findings. Seasonal restrictions may apply due to weather conditions, particularly during the rainy season. The cost of entry is generally low, and a typical visit lasts for a few hours. Solo exploration is possible, but a guided tour offers a more enriching experience.
