Drakensberg canopy tour

Drakensberg Canopy Tour.

For those who are not familiar with the canopy tour concept a canopy tour is basically a steel rope slide high up in the trees between platforms created in the Rock face and treetops. Essentially one is put in a harness which is then clipped onto a steel rope and you then jump into open space and slide along the rope to the next platform and then repeat the exercise from platform to platform. Besides the adrenalin rush one can also see the forest from a different prospective, high up in the trees. It is a great experience and the one in the Central Drakensberg is the longest in the country taking about 3 hours to complete. The emphasis is on the natural experience and the guides have been well trained and guide you through the various flora and fauna you will encounter. For those who are scared of heights , fear not, as the experience is extremely safe, with back up systems to meet all eventualities and well trained competent guides.

Fly fishing at Wits End

The Wits End dam situated in the Champagne Valley Central Drakensberg is private dam for the exclusive use of guests staying at our self catering chalets and is therefore not heavily fished. It is probably the only dedicated fly fishing dam of reasonable size in the area. We are in the process of dedicating our dam to Natal Yellow fish our breeding stock having been introduced some 8

years ago and all indications are that they are breeding well. Only fly fishing is permitted and is free to guests on a catch and release basis.
