Central Berg

Incl. Cathedral Peak, Champagne Castle, Kamberg, Monk's Cowl & Winterton

Abseiling down a cliff face, central Drakensberg, South AfricaThe quaint and charming farming town of Winterton (1910) forms the gateway to the Central Drakensberg.  This region of the Berg is popular for family and sporting holidays and there are many adventure and eco-tourist and opportunities.  Many well-maintained hiking routes traverse the area. 

There are many resorts, hiking guides and lodges in the area.  The Drakensberg is best in the 'dry' season: February til May.  Yet weather can change quickly and treacherously.  Rather make use of local guides and take note of weather forcasts.

Most of the peaks are covered with snow at some time during the winter months.
