Sabie
Sabie is a forestry town situated on the banks of the Sabie River in Mpumalanga, South Africa.

The Tsonga called this river Ulusaba ("fearful river") because the river was once teeming with dangerous Nile crocodile. The word Ulusaba was modernized by the Afrikaner colonialists who changed it from Ulusaba (Tsonga) into the Afrikaans "Sabie" . The town was started after H.T. Glynn and J.C.
