Drakensberg, South Africa

We visited the Northern Drakensberg Mountains this month, which is about a three to four hour drive from Pretoria. The last hour or so of the drive is a breathtaking scenic view of the stunning mountains. While there, we stayed at The Caverns, which is a very family oriented place. There are daily games, sports, activities, hikes, bike rides, pony rides, fishing and meals together. We also stopped at the All Out Adventure Park very close to The Cavern that had tons of activities such as, quad rides, zip lining, bike runs, etc...Here are some photos of our getaway.

 Look who we spotted in the mountains.

 This boy was sitting in the middle of nowhere selling some

handmade small animal statues. We bought a few from him.

 Stunning views

 We took a hike to the waterfall.

 Love this picture!

 The Cavern has several of these guys to scare away the baboons.

 Pony rides.

 Autumn in April.

 Of course baboons are everywhere. 

Thank goodness for their giant dogs at The Cavern, who scare them away.

 Trampolines

 Zip Lining

 The DREADED King Swing. Most people at the park were too scared to do this, 

including me. Matt did it twice…go figure.

Great trip!
