Having done the Sani Pass we decided a more leisurely day was needed. Nearby was the Drakensberg Gardens We were informed we could go through their grounds to the campsite at the end and do some walking. Pillar Cave was our choice, so off we set. It was a great walk although we had to…
Continuing from South Africa – Underberg and the Sani Pass – part 1 Going through the border control was very easy and everything was sorted by Aldo.
