Thaba Chweu hosts Umzumbe Local Municipality to improve tourism
The Umzumbe Local Municipality is situated on the lower south coast of KwaZulu-Natal and shares similar landscapes and attributes as Thaba Chweu.
On Thursday July 21 the Umzumbe Local Municipality joined the Thaba Chweu Local Municipality (TCLM) which is Graskop, Sabie and Lydenburg at the Graskop Gorge Lift Company.
The Graskop Gorge is seen as a benchmark model for eco-tourism. A project like this enhances and promotes local economic growth.
