A Tale of Two Summits
High above Eswatini’s Ezulwini Valley stand two mountains with very different stories to tell.
One is Nyonyane — Ex*****on Rock.
Known as the “Rock of Ex*****on”, Nyonyane is steeped in stories of those who were condemned and taken to the cliffs above the valley. Its name, meaning little bird, is traditionally linked to the fate of those who were sent over its precipice.
But Nyonyane’s story goes much further back. Long before kings, executions and European explorers, people were already living in the shadow of this mountain thousands of years ago.
And then, across the valley, rise two unmistakable peaks:
Sheba’s Breasts.
Named for their distinctive shape, these twin mountains have become woven into the mythology of the Ezulwini Valley — a landscape of ancient kingdoms, spirits, legends and stories of the Queen of Sheba and King Solomon.
And between these two worlds lies something particularly intriguing...
An old tunnel.
A forgotten passage through the mountain that provides a link between the two summits — turning two separate climbs into one extraordinary journey through Eswatini’s history, legends and landscapes.
On 17 October 2026, SummitX will take on both Nyonyane (Ex*****on Rock) and Sheba’s Breasts, using the old tunnel to link the two.
But don't underestimate this one.
18km of tough mountain terrain. Two summits. Steep climbs. And a tunnel linking it all together.
This is not a gentle stroll through the valley.
It is a proper mountain adventure for those who are ready to earn the views.
Two summits.
One tunnel.
Centuries of stories.
18km of tough hiking.
