Royal Natal Park



We broke up our drive to Johannesburg by stopping at Royal Natal in the Drakensberg.  It would have been great to spend more time here, but we only had time for a short hike to see some San Bushmen Cave Paintings.

Our guide was Ndisa.


This section of the Drakensberg is close to the border between Lesotho and the KwaZulu-Natal province of South Africa.

Once above the level of our truck, we followed Ndisa along a rock wall to the paintings.






Most were faint, but we could make out different animals.  He told us there were many such paintings; these were just a few that were easily accessible.

Our destination for the night was Harrismith in the Free State where we stayed in Alexander's AIRBNB that once were nuns' quarters.  It was a very cold night.
