The awesome Drakensberg Mountains, a breath-taking escarpment with vertical drops of up to 800 meters, separate the interior of the country from the coastal region. The region offers a wide array of outdoor activities – hiking, mountain biking, climbing, horse trails, whitewater rafting (in season), fly fishing, etc. The mountains houses 35% of Southern Africa’s San rock-art dating back thousands of years and unique flora all of which contributed to The Ukhahlamba-Drakensberg Park, becoming a World Heritage Site (one of only 23 duel sites worldwide).

The majority of South Africa’s famous battles fought between the British, the Zulu and Boers took part in this area, today these battlefield are brought to life by renown historians such as David Rattray and Andrew Ardington.
