Piggs Peak
Hhohho Region, Eswatini
Piggs Peak is a town in the Hhohho Region of northwestern Eswatini, originally founded around gold prospecting in 1884 by William Pigg. While gold mining was once the main industry, it has since been replaced by forestry, which now dominates the local economy.
The town lies near natural attractions like the Phophonyane Falls and the Maguga Dam, the latter being a large dam completed in 2001 on the Komati River just south of Piggs Peak.
The area is situated in rugged, mountainous terrain known for its scenic beauty and mild climate, and it serves as a regional hub with amenities such as a casino, hotels, and local craft centers. Piggs Peak is also referred to by locals with affectionate nicknames and is notable for its cultural and economic significance within Eswatini.
