Our Best Intermediate Drakensberg Hikes
We have carefully looked at the endless number of fantastic treks that we could take you on in the Drakensberg, and narrowed it down to our list of our favorite hikes.
The hikes below are the best intermediate multi day hikes in the Drakensberg that we do. However you can always contact us and ask us to arrange any other Drakensberg hike you would like to do! That means hiking with your own group.
Considering that you may want to step up your intensity of Drakensberg trekking
gradually, our intermediate hikes are graded from Easy to Intermediate through to Intermediate to Challenging for your convenience.
When you contact us, remember to let us know whether you would prefer to do a Bronze, Silver or Gold Package hike, and choose your Souvenir Bundle!
If none of these dates suit you to book a scheduled hike, or we don’t have upcoming hikes here … please use the contact form on the hikes below to book a private hike with us!
