Enjoy this movie with pictures from www.berg.co.za

Click HERE to visit different places of the Drakensberg mountain and you can also make bookings from this link. This mountain range stretches from the Northern part of South Africa to the Southern part of the country. The highest peak is Mount Aux Sources, about 4300m. I was on Mount Aux Sources when I was 15 with a school hiking trip!
There are many caves in “The Berg” where you can sleep when going on a hiking trip….click HERE to see the caves and links….they tell you also about CAVE ETIQUETTE! on the cave-index page! You can also read on the “hut” link where to find huts to stay on your trip! And…on THIS LINK you can see a gallery of the peaks in “The Berg”..and their names. This is really a MUST go place to go on holiday, make sure you don’t miss out!

The Blue Crane…our National Bird…

The Galjoen ….as you can see it’s fish…….we are busy with National symbols here… but I think this fish isn’t the most beautiful one I’ve seen! hehe…

When it comes to trees….the Yellowwood

And…our Coat of Arms….
