DRAKENSBERG

  • 13 June 2022

Join GoTrekking Africa’s Drakensberg mountain guides on a trekking or hiking tour & explore the dramatic Drakensberg mountain range. Spectacular views are constant, there is never a moment when the massive basalt walls, cliffs, peaks & pinnacles that tower over the coastal lowlands of Kwa-Zulu Natal aren’t visible. Spend the days trekking through The uKhahlamba Drakensberg Park, explore the high altitude wetlands, hike across pristine Drakensberg streams & spend your evenings gazing at the stars glittering above you.

 

This is a wilderness area of untouched beauty where the magnitude of the vista is breathtaking. The Drakensberg separates the mountain Kingdom of Lesotho from South Africa, hiking or trekking on the escarpment you see the best of both.  It was granted Cultural & Natural UNESCO World Heritage Status in 2000 for the unique environmental diversity & priceless legacy of Rock Art preserved in sandstone rock shelters which offer us a glimpse into the enigmatic lives & rituals the San people who once lived in these mountains.
