South Africa: Experience the Drakensberg news

'Massive' Snowfall in DrakensbergSouth Africa

Get the best value this winter in a never to be seen again offer of 50% off. Antbear Lodge and Ardmore Guest Farm have just agreed to my idea of the best winter special ever for the next 7 days.

The Drakensberg is the best destination in South Africa for snow.

Brace yourself … Its already snowing in the Drakensberg and more snow is predicted for this winter. These really are the words you want to hear when we are talking about the Drakensberg Mountains. Snow just makes the Drakensberg Mountains even more dramatic and spectacular. Its cozy fires and old brown sherry and spectacular views.

Some of the best places to see snow in the Drakensberg

° Giants Castle is situated in the Central Drakensberg and offers some of the most spectacular snow views of the Drakensberg Mountains. This is one of the best Drakensberg snow locations if you are looking to see the snow views. Access is easy with a tar road which means even if there is snow on the road you can still drive.

° Highmoor is the highest KZN Wildlife camp in the Drakesberg so its little wonder the Highmoor experiences more snow than any other part of the Drakensberg Mountains. Whats makes Highmoor such a perfect snow attraction is that there is a tar road that will take you right up to the camp. If you wish to play in the snow this is the best Drakensberg snow location by far.

° Underberg and Sani Pass While it’s not guaranteed to snow every year, the quaint southern Drakensberg villages of Underberg and Himeville are great bases for 4x4 trips up Sani Pass, where winter snow is more or less assured. To make the most of the snow at the top of the pass book a 4x4 excursion.

° Central Drakensberg If you’re feeling active and find the idea of hiking through snow appealing, this part of the Drakensberg is for you. The weather here tends to be more stable during winter and, after a snowstorm, conditions can become bright and clear for days.

Antbear Lodge

How is the Drakensberg reacting to COVID 19 risks?

The short answer is that we are doing a lot. We take your safety seriously. We are prepared according to the current  FEDHASA and TBCSA guidelines. Staff have been trained and understand the recommended COVID 19 protocols needed to protect themselves and protect you. Incl. PPE, hand hygiene, social distancing, wearing masks always and cleaning with the mandatory disinfectants. Some places have even implemented a contact-less check-in procedure, have a procedure in place should staff or guests display symptoms and also has a dedicated unit available should quarantine become a necessity. Places we deal with are ethical and have a 100% refund policy in place should you have to cancel because of COVID 19 lockdowns or infections.

You can rest assured you will be safer in the Drakensberg than at home!
