Sibebe is a granite mountain about 10 kilometers from Mbabane, the capital of Eswatini, rising some 350 meters above the valley of the Mbuluzi River. It is described as the second-largest monolith in the world after Uluru and the largest exposed granite pluton, its bare, dome-shaped surface, locally nicknamed Bald Rock, standing out sharply against the surrounding vegetation. The exposed granite draws hikers who climb marked routes across its sloping face to viewpoints over the surrounding countryside. This entity documents Sibebe Rock specifically as a geological formation, the largest exposed granite pluton on Earth after Uluru.
