3 Highest Peaks in South Africa 5 Day Circuit

Mafadi. Injisuthi Dome. Champagne Castle. 5 days. 1 epic hiking flex.

This hike doesn’t just tick boxes it smashes them.

On this 5-day high-altitude adventure, we’ll summit the three tallest peaks in South Africa:
•  Mafadi (3,450m)
• Injisuthi Dome (3,407m)
• Champagne Castle (3,377m)

It all kicks off and ends at Injisuthi Camp in the Central Drakensberg, a mountain haven so beautiful you’ll consider selling your house and moving into a tent full-time. We highly recommend arriving the night before, we start early, and nothing ruins a summit more than sleep deprivation and highway rage.

Over the 60km you’ll cover across 5 glorious (and sometimes grueling) days, you’ll ascend nearly 3,000 vertical metres. Not exactly “easy peasy,” unless your quads are made of titanium and your soul runs on masochism.

This hike will challenge your fitness, mental strength, and ability to laugh at dad jokes on repeat. And yes, the views are outrageous, the campsites remote, and the stoke levels high.

Cost: R6,500 per person
