The Drakensberg Mountains is a popular area to visit in South Africa. It’s known as their world heritage site, while one of the key benefits is the fabulous routes for walkers. You can also take up the opportunity to go horse-riding but one of the main aims, if you’re visiting the Drakensberg region, is to reach the top of the mountain.

It may be exhausting, muggy and extremely challenging, but when you reach the top the sites are phenomenal. You can also find numerous hotels nearby so you’re not restricted to setting up a tent. You can finish your day in a high quality restaurant, or perhaps in a secluded bed and breakfast, but if you ever get the chance to visit South Africa, the Drakensberg Mountains should always be considered.

Bushmen can guide you, and help you move swiftly and safely, but remember it’s no easy task, and if you want the opportunity to take a few snaps at the top then it’s recommended to organise a walk with an experienced guide.
