uKHAHLAMBA DRAKENSBERG PARK - HIGHMOOR NATURE RESERVE - ACCOMMODATION
OVERVIEW

Highmoor Nature Reserve forms part of the Mkhomazi Wilderness Area in the central
region of the uKhahlamba-Drakensberg Park, and boasts a stunning array of rare, endemic and
endangered flora and fauna species. Bordered by Kamberg and Lotheni to the south and Giant's Castle
to the north, Highmoor offers exciting fly fishing with a variety of carefully managed trout dams
available to restricted numbers of fisherman.
The area also boasts excellent rock art sites, which can be visited by arrangement, accompanied
by a guide. Highmoor has seven tastefully concealed campsites, said by many to be the most
atmospheric (and incidentally the highest) campsites in KwaZulu-Natal. The communal ablution block
is equipped with hot showers and flush toilets.
Two caves, Aasvoelkrantz and Caracal, are available for large groups (maximum 20 people).
Aasvoelkrantz, approximately an hour and a half walk from the car park, is a double storey-size
cave that has a permanent supply of water throughout the year, and Caracal cave, approximately two
hours walk from the car park, overlooks the Ncibidwane River and Giant's Castle with water only
readily available in the summer months.
