The Midlands & Drakensberg KwaZulu-Natal South Africa
The
Drakensberg and the Natal Midlands of South Africa are about as
beautiful as any place in the world. Venture
westwards into the Midlands from the mountainous Drakensberg to a vista of rolling green hills, crystal streams
and indigenous forests.
A charming and scenic area that reflects its English Settler character and tradition, where the pace is leisurely and the welcome friendly and warm. It is home to a unique collection of artists and craftspeople who make up the Midlands Meander and offers fine country accommodation, forest hikes , trout fishing and a host of other activities.
Referred to in Zulu as Ukahlambha, a barrier of spears, the mighty Drakensberg Mountains are a sight to behold. Secluded mountain lodges overlook valleys and sparkling streams.
The Natal Drakensberg Park is a world of great open spaces, gigantic buttresses and towering peaks, hidden valleys graced with virgin forests and home to a host of fauna and flora and some of the finest collections of rock art painting.
Experience the thrill of rock climbing, hang-gliding and mountain biking,
or the serenity of trout fishing or relaxing in the dappled shade of a
forest glade.
