Besides superb trout fishing, the majestic Sani Pass and hiking, numerous other sports and activities promise a most enjoyable stay. Come to the Southern Drakensberg – the magical mountain and farmland district in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Incorporating the villages of Underberg, Himeville, Bulwer and surrounding area, the Southern Berg is a paradise for those who love active, outdoor holidays and the beauty of undisturbed nature.

We offer more than 2500 beds in modern and comfortable hotels, lodges, B&B and self-catering accommodation as well as camping facilities and caves. An extensive part of the Ukahlamba Drakensberg Park falls into the Southern Drakensberg area making it a haven for hikers, lovers of wildlife and birds and wildflower enthusiasts. Enjoy mountain biking, horse riding, trout fishing and much more! Explore a wealth of San Rock Art, as well as the local arts and crafts.

In order to make some of the superb routes and trails more accessible to the frequent visitors to this area some permanent trails are now available, on a commercial basis, via the Sani Spoors development which has taken place from the Duck and Dolittle restaurant and animal farm situated +- 2kms out on the Drakensberg Gardens road.

There you can on most days visit the Sani Spoors office, buy your ticket for the day (+-R40 for adults and R20 for kids) and enjoy a variety of river and forest single track routes. Something really not to be missed!!
