(a) Full Day Hikes:

The superb natural beauty and the incredible variety of flora and fauna, together with the masterpieces of San Rock Art, enabled this status to be achieved. It is therefore no wonder that this is a hiker's paradise like none other…

We offer fully guided hiking/trekking trips into the scenic and majestic Drakensberg Mountains. Hikes can range from rambles through the lower lying foothills to climbs up to an altitude of 3482m (Thabana Nthlenyana - the highest peak in Southern Africa).

Full day hikes in and around the ‘Little Berg’.
Popular hikes include - Emerald Stream, Bathplug Cave & Pinnacle Rock.

(b) Two or more days

For the more adventurous. Sleep in caves or tents (bring your own tent & equipment) with a chance of meeting remote Basotho shepherds tending their flocks.
