Spend a day in the stunning scenery of the Drakensberg Mountains. The first European settlers called them 'Dragon Mountains'; the Zulus call them 'Barrier of Spears', but whatever their name, there is no denying that the Drakensberg mountain range is one of the most spectacular natural features of Africa. These magnificent peaks soar up to 3000 metres offering spectacular views of high mountains, waterfalls and often you can see large herds of eland. Visit Giants Castle and enjoy a three kilometre walk to the site of the caves adorned with the Bushman's legacy. Two of the best places to see San rock art are at the Main Cave and Battle Cave. The paintings here date back thousands of years, and are still clearly visible on the walls and the ceilings. After your guided tour enjoy a hearty lunch before returning to Durban via the Midlands Meander route, with its many craft and farmers markets.
