I’ve hiked the Drakensberg (Dragon Mountains) escarpment of South Africa only once. Fantastic.
For example, my Giant’s Cup Trail (2 days).
Logistics are easier than you might think.
I travelled solo with Bazbus. Stayed in their recommended hostels.
Not once did I ever feel unsafe traveling there.
Harmen Hoek was there, hiking solo for 8-days in March 2022.
World Wide Hearts traveled and hiked extensively in the Drakensberg. Here’s their advice.
