Drakensberg Mountains

Drakensberg Mountains

Adventure Holidays to the Drakensberg Mountains

The Drakensberg Mountains stretch for over 200km separating the Kwa Zulu Natal province of South Africa and the mountainous Kingdom of Lesotho.

From the massive basalt cliffs of its northern reaches to the soaring sandstone buttresses in the south, the ‘uKahlamba’ or barrier of spears offers some of the finest walking anywhere in Africa.

This recently proclaimed World Heritage Site with its vast vistas and dramatic peaks, is complemented by a wealth of flora and fauna, including over 300 species of birdlife. There is always a chance of seeing the magnificent Bearded Vulture soaring close overhead or a troop of baboon scampering into the undergrowth.

Walking & Trekking

Quite the most incredble insight into what SA has to offer. With the help of our two brilliant leaders Clifford & Andy we were spoilt by the number of bird and big 5 sightings (these guys have eyes in the back of their heads and Xray vision!). For wildlife spotting this trip does not disappoint – elephant, giraffe, rhino, hyena, lions, warthog, so many antelope and not forgetting a “Leopard Tortoise”all in our first week. Glorious walks abound, the Drakensberg are truely breathaking and we were expertly lead and looked after according to our skill levels. In amongst this were enlightening lessons in tribal history and culture that helped us understand the real SA. Accomodation is varied but everytime suited the location perfectly. The days were long but our leaders were tireless in their enthusiasm, kindness and skills in cooking! If you want a memorable and very varied trip in Africa this is a winner.

A & H Wilson South Africa: Walking & Wildlife

From the moment I stepped off the plane and met our guides Clifford and Andy the trip was exciting it comprised of such a fabulous variety of experiences and immersed you in South African culture, history, beauty and wildlife. The accommodation was varied and suited the environments we were in. The game drives were superb and we saw such a large variety of animals and birds. The hikes took us to areas of outstanding breathtaking beauty. Our guides were phenomenal nothing was to much trouble they understood our individuality and catered to our needs as the only vegetarian in the group I was given some of the most awesome meals courtesy of our guides cooking skills. I would highly recommend this trip

julie Thompson South Africa: Walking & Wildlife

An extensive and enjoyable tour of South Africa but this is a big country and the time spent travelling was greater than expected. The tour group was less cohesive than other Exodus holidays we have enjoyed.
