uKhahlamba-Drakensberg Park Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

Went hiking in the southern Drakensberg of South Africa. Amazing views of the mountain chain, gorges, rivers and small ponds with crystal clear water. Stayed at Sani Lodge Backpackers, just a few km from the famous Sani Pass, leading up to Lesotho. A perfect place to be, if you like nature - hiking opportunities for everyone, beginners, medium or advanced.

Go for a one hour, two hour, or three hour ride in the Drakensberg Mountains on lovely little Basuto ponies. It’s the best way to immerse yourself in the amazing scenery!
