Tripcode: TZD

A stunning traverse of the Drakensberg range plus spectacular game viewing in Kruger National Park

The Drakensbergs are a unique range of mountains, forming a 'Barrier of Spears' along the border between Natal and Lesotho. This traverse takes us along the backbone from north to south, passing the beautiful 'Amphitheatre' and encompassing some of the finest walking anywhere in Africa. The vast vistas and rocky outcrops are complemented by a wealth of flora and fauna, including over 300 species of birdlife. The wildlife just gets better as we head east through Swaziland to the Kruger, one of the most famous National Parks in Africa, before visiting a private reserve for a guided game walk.
