Lindela to Pomene From Lindela the road passes through Maxixe (pronounced Mashish) and then onto Massinga. This is also a new road once again making the drive a lot more pleasant. As you leave Massinga heading north you will find the Pomene turnoff (approx. 10km out of town) to the right. This is a dirt road of approx. 54km which is definitely a 4x4 drive.The road has some notorious sections and drivers need to concentrate and drive with caution. "Heartbreak Hill" is notorious and needs to be negotiated carefully. Nearer the coast the road becomes sand and it is advisable to deflate tyres for this last section (approx. 8km). The road is also narrow. Be cautious of oncoming vehicles. Follow the signs to Pomene Lodge. However, arriving at Pomene makes it all worthwhile. Remote, beautiful and definitely worth the effort.
