The spectacular views, wildness, freshness and beauty will captivate you while the deep silence will calm you. Drakensberg Mountain Retreat boasts the most picturesque setting, high on a ridge overlooking the northern and central Drakensberg.
The majestic Northern Drakensberg is the highest part and possibly the most impressive of the Drakensberg mountain range, rising to over 3 000 metres. Known to the Zulu people as Ukhahlamba, or 'Barrier of Spears', the Mountains of the Dragon provide a magnificent semi-circular border between KwaZulu-Natal and the inland mountain kingdom of Lesotho. The watershed of the basalt peaks divide the rains and snows, some flowing westwards over the alpine plateau of Lesotho towards the Atlantic Ocean, and some down the frequently vertical slopes into KwaZulu-Natal, towards the warm Indian Ocean. The Northern Drakensberg is the source of the Tugela River, the largest river in the KwaZulu-Natal Province, and it plunges some 950 metres over the edge of the Mont-aux-Sources.
This is the perfect venue for that small intimate wedding, and we can offer accommodation for your guests as well.
