Lubombo Mountains

Also known as Lebombo Mountains

The Lubombo Mountains are a long, narrow range of hills in southern Africa, running north to south along the borders of South Africa, Eswatini and Mozambique. Formed of volcanic rock, they separate the lowveld of Eswatini from the coastal plain of Mozambique. The Swazi kingdom grew up to their west and the Tembe kingdom of Delagoa Bay to their east.
