Thank you, glad you enjoyed it! For the Drakensberg, each season offers something unique, but your best bet is probably Autumn. Summer months have thunderstorm, but by April, the rain has mostly stopped, but things are still beautifully green, and its not yet too cold. Another great mountain range for hiking is the Cederberg, in which case November is a great month - it almost never rains, and so you can hike without packing a tent and just sleep under the stars. It gets very hot during the day, but is not yet the peak of Summer, so still manageable
This was actually from the end of August last year (I'm a little behind in my editing schedule 🤦♂). Yea it's really hit and miss, went back to Franschoek this year when a lot of snow was forecast, but there was nothing except right up on the peaks. While the Drakensberg is always cold enough for snow in Winter, it's dry season in KZN, so only the odd lucky cold front brings proper snow. It's incredible when it happens though!
Nice Vid.
Unfortunately been a while since I saw one of these adventures. At least I get to binge watch a few now. Awesome as usual,Dan!
What a day!
Unforgettable!
super film!! would like to hike the Drakensberg and some other parts in South Africa, which month would you say is the best - warmer ;) and dry.

Epic! Was this during the last cold front/snowfall in September? Went up to Amphitheatre hoping to find similar but nothing like this.
