It's raining cave paintings in the World Heritage-listed Drakensberg Mountains, the highest mountain range in Southern Africa. Over 40 thousand San artworks dating back to as far as 100 thousand years ago drape about 500 caves in the mountains, making it the largest museum of the world's biggest collection of caveman creations.
Seated at the right wing of South Africa, the tabletop Drakensberg Mountains is sliced into several summits, game reserves and national parks. One of the most popular peaks is Giant's Castle, a nature reserve resembling a sleeping giant , known for its secluded accommodations and hiking marathons. Another important site is the Royal Natal National Park, which lodges the world's second-highest waterfall, Tugela Falls.
Every spring, a wide carpet of wild flowers is laid down before hikers trudging slopes like those of Little Berg, caped with prehistoric flowers, ancient fern trees, and exotic cycads. South Africa's biggest antelopes, bearded vultures and baboons also give way to humans on a hike, although snakes may not be just as friendly. These creatures are among Drakensberg's about 120 species that were identified as globally endangered, so apart from game viewing and bird-watching, conservation is at the heart of tourism in the area.
