South Africa's Drakensberg
Altitude 3482m, Duration 10 days, Grade T2b (grades)
Background
- Ascend the higest peak in the Drakensberg
- Giant’s Castle and World’s View
- Mont-aux-Sources and the Amphitheatre
Known in the Zulu language as ‘The Barrier of Spears’, the Drakensberg Mountains form a formidable barrier of sandstone topped with basalt between South Africa and Lesotho. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this region preserves San rock art as well as a wide variety of birds and animals. With high mountain peaks, dramatic rock architecture, impressive waterfalls and green meadows cut by smooth flowing rivers, this is an ideal area to enjoy a few nights out in the wilderness, camping in some spectacular locations.
Our two-part trek takes you to all the best places, and with porters to assist you can enjoy this serene wilderness carrying only a light backpack for the nights spent out in the hills. We take you to the summit of ThabanaNtlenyana in Lesotho (3482m), along vertiginous escarpments, across to Sentinel Peak, the Amphitheatre, Tugela Falls and Mont-aux-Sources – and all squeezed into a week’s holiday!
Why not extend your stay by visiting Cape Town and the Winelands, the Kruger National Park or the Garden Route? Please ask for details.
Prices are exclusive of international flights to Durban.
