Day 7 of our virtual tour takes us to the Drakensberg mountain which is renowned for its spectacular natural landscape, importance as a haven for many threatened and endemic species, and for its wealth of rock paintings made by the San people over a period of 4000 years. The Drakensberg also offers spectacular hiking trails.
The Drakensberg is the name given to the eastern portion of the Great Escarpment, which encloses the central Southern African plateau. The Great Escarpment reaches its greatest elevation – 2,000 to 3,482 metres within the border region of South Africa and Lesotho. The Maloti Drakensberg Transboundary is a World Heritage Site since 1997.
