North Drakensberg Traverse

Aaren Adventures best describes this strenuous five to six day trek through South Africa s highest mountain range: A trek across this epic landscape begins by ascending chain ladders to reach the top of this barrier and the plateau of Mount aux Sources, where the Tugela River plunges 3,110 feet off the top in a series of five cascades that make for the second highest waterfall in the world. From here, the trek crosses the high plateau broken by rock formations, views out across the cliffs, and the huts of Sotho herdsman before it works its way down past more waterfalls and river crossings before meeting up with the welcome civilization of the Cathedral Peak Hotel.
