Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 чер 2024
- Spanning the border between South Africa's KwaZulu-Natal province and the country of Lesotho, Drakensberg is a majestic mountain range. Encompassing a vast 243,000 hectares, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is made up of towering cliffs, lush forests, cascading waterfalls, rolling hills, and deep gorges. The huge area can be divided into three distinct regions: the Southern, Central, and Northern Drakensberg. Each area can be easily accessed by road, although sometimes potholes can make driving times slower compared to other parts of South Africa. All three Drakensberg regions offer a wide range of activities and accommodation options. In this video, we’ll cover each of the Drakensberg areas and unveil our favorite hiking trails and activities.

Beautiful nature shots with fantastic video quality! Best regards from Germany🏆
Nice to see the remaining possibilities. We only got to do the Amphitheater hike ourselves. It was great, but also scary to climb those ladders in strong wind.
Oh yeah in strong wind it must be so scary! Did the chains move because of it?
@@worldwildhearts They sure did. At one point hiking up a gust even threw us off balance shortly. Still brilliant view from the top. A bit sad we only had 2 days in the area.
What a perfect tour😊👍thanks for all the useful information on the side
