Hotels in Drakensberg, South Africa

Drakensberg is a mountain range in South Africa, famous for its dramatic peaks and ancient San rock art. The climate brings warm summers (75-85°F / 24-29°C) perfect for hiking the Amphitheatre or kayaking at Sterkfontein Dam, and cold winters (35-50°F / 2-10°C) when you can snowshoe near Cathedral Peak or visit the Giant's Castle game reserve for fewer crowds. If you come in spring (September-November), you'll see wildflowers and cheaper rates, while autumn offers clear skies for photographing the Tugela Falls-the world's second-highest waterfall.
