Drakensberg Grand Traverse 12 Day Expedition

Ever wanted to cross the entire Drakensberg range in one go? Yeah, we thought so.
Join us for 10 days of pure mountain madness as we tackle the northern, central, and southern Berg on what’s quite possibly South Africa’s toughest and most remote hike  the Drakensberg Grand Traverse.

We’ll chew through about 25km a day with 1,000m of climbing all off trail. That’s right: no neat little paths, no cute park benches, just you, the mountains, and a lot of uphill.

Don’t worry we’ve got the boring stuff sorted. Transport? Done. Catering? Sorted. Porters? Absolutely. Resupplies? Yup, you even get one glorious mid-hike moment where you can swap out sweaty socks for fresh ones. Porters carry the food and tents, so all you have to worry about is your personal gear (sleeping bag, clothing, snacks, and not crying on the uphill).

We’ve planned this beast for October, when the Berg is showing off with green slopes, flowing rivers, and weather that’s just warm enough to trick you into thinking it’s easy (it’s not).

Need gear? We’ve got some of the best lightweight kit in the country. Want excuses? Sorry, we don’t stock those.

Spots are limited, so if you fancy spending 10 days smelling like a wild goat and loving every second of it, drop us a mail: info@souladventures.co.za.
