Hiking in the South AfricanDrakensberg is a popular activity in South Africa. GPS navigation has eased the navigation in the mountains significantly.
Current maps distributed by KZN (KwaZulu-Natal) Wildlife uses the Cape datum as the geodesic reference. GPS users should be careful to use the corect datum as WGS 84 is not always the default.
The Drakensberg (Afrikaans for "Dragon Mountains") mountains are the highest in South Africa, rising up at Thabana Ntlenyana to 3,482 m (11,422 ft) in height.
Navigation on long hikes is often aided by GPS receivers, and current maps distributed by KZN (KwaZulu-Natal) Wildlife uses the Cape datum as the geodesic reference.
Tourism in the Drakensberg is developing, with a variety of hotels and resorts appearing on the slopes.
Drakensberghiking trails are many which is not surprising given the huge area of potential Drakensberghiking.
This hike is the beginning section of all hikes radiating from the Monk's Cowl KZN Wildlife office.
This hike leads from the camp, along the river near the edge of a forest, up to the large caves, which are crucial archaeological sites and have been turned into a museum showing the Bushman's way of life.
