Discover the wolkberg

If open skies, magnificent mountain scenery and the open trail are enough to make your spirit soar, head off to the 19 000 hectare Wolkberg Wilderness Reserve near Haenertsburg for a hike.  Here, the Drakensberg meets the Strydpoort Mountains in dramatic splendour and hikers can walk for days through a remote, rugged and unspoilt wilderness, choosing their own routes.  The quartzitic cliffs provide a challenge for fit hikers, while the beauty of the forests, ravines and waterfalls appeal to all.  In the quiet space of this mountain setting, you can see various butterflies, birds, antelope and rare plants while the altitude of 2127 metres provides breathtaking views in every direction.  Massive buttresses and interlocking spurs give way to sparkling mountain streams for a refreshing dip at the end of an awe-inspiring day. 

Stay at the hikers’ hut or the nearby King’s Walden Lodge.
