Drakensberg
South Africa
Join us on a journey to one of the worlds most beautiful mountain
areas. The Drakensberg Mountains, situated on the border of Lesotho
and South Africa gives rise to a towering amphitheatre and a spectacular free standing
buttress, the Sentinel. Over 3000m high, the route to the Sentinel's summit is
attainable, safe and challenging. We meet at Witsieshoek in the Drakensberg and start
our walk in. The Sentinel has one rope section of 15m which makes its summit a
challenge to most but the rest is scrambling. This adventure involves not only climbing
the Sentinel, but also spending a day on top of the Amphitheatre. Once up the infamous
70m chain ladders, camp will be set up on the banks of the Tugela River just as it
disappears over the edge and falls more than 900m making it the worlds second highest
waterfall. This area is also the play ground of the Bearded Vulture and offers excellent
photographic potential.
Join us on an outing of a lifetime. Packages include guides, meals and communal equipment. Contact us for more details. Area : Drakensberg, South Africa Altitude : 3000m Duration : 3 days Grade : 3
