Tzaneen on the road
Tzaneen is a farming town in the green Lowveld, and towing here is shaped by the steep Magoebaskloof Pass and the fruit farms around it. The R71 climbs from Tzaneen through Magoebaskloof to Haenertsburg and Polokwane, with tight bends, heavy trucks and sudden mist. The R36 to Duiwelskloof and the R529 to Letsitele carry fruit trucks, farm bakkies and tractors. Summer rain is heavy here, and wet roads, fog and slippery forest tracks often lead to breakdowns and recovery calls. Citrus, avocado and banana farmers, timber firms, tourists in the mountains and commuters from Nkowankowa and Lenyenye ask for tows, recovery and trailers here.
