Campsites in Drakensberg
Have you ever stood atop a mountain, feeling the world stretch endlessly beneath your feet? The Drakensberg, meaning "Dragon Mountains," offers this and more.

Whether you're hiking through lush valleys or setting up camp under a canopy of stars, the Drakensberg promises an unforgettable outdoor experience.
Beyond its natural beauty, the Drakensberg is a treasure trove of history and culture.

From the exhilarating heights of the Amphitheatre cliff face to the serene trails leading to the Tugela Falls, the world's tallest waterfall, there's something for everyone. Mountain biking, horseback riding, and birdwatching are just a few activities to immerse yourself in nature. Have you ever wondered what it's like to zip-line through a forest canopy or conquer a challenging rock face? Here, those adventures await.
Camping in the Drakensberg allows you to fully embrace its serene environment. Imagine nights spent around a campfire, sharing stories under a starlit sky, and mornings greeted by the calls of native birds.
