Experience the a Drakensberg mountains on foot. We spend 3 days and 2 nights hiking in the Mnweni area of the Drakensberg. Experience hiking South African style. The Drakensberg mountains are rated in the top 10 hikes to do in the world. The hiking experience is unlike anything you have done before. The Drakensberg is remote. Very remote. You will most likely see no one for the entire hike. We sleep in tents, drink water from the river and trek along mountain paths.
The highlight is sleeping in a cave that is edged into the escarpment.

Wonderful hiking experience! The Mweni mountains were breathtaking and the organization was excellent.
Patrick is a great guide and left no wish unfulfilled: great equipment, wonderful hiking route, delicious food and a positive vibe within the group. He also magically managed that after a full day and night of rain we could enjoy the most beautiful sunrise in the best weather the next morning.
Everything went smoothly from booking till the end of the hike. We had a wonderful time disconnecting and enjoying the nature.
Thank you!

Soul Adventures and specifically Patrick are simply amazing.
They make hiking the Drakensberg so much easier, and accessible to anyone- even those without the camping gear.
Their turnkey approach ( at no extra expense) offers everything from tents, backpacks, and sleeping bags right up to delicious warm food at the start and the end of each day. The most surprising being a choice of Hot chocolate, Tea, Fresh French press coffee AND fresh milk. Honestly!? Truley Glamping in the Drakensberg...
Patrick somehow manages to carry all of the gear and bits and pieces without breaking a sweat.
Soul Adventures and Patrick make the entire experience seamless and easy, it is bordering on cheating.
Outside of their catering skills, they seem to have struck the perfect balance of light-heartedness, fun, and knowledge all carefully stitched together with the requisite skill and safety backed up by their mountain qualifications. Patrick must be the only guide who takes a rope up to the Chain Ladders for Justin.
Ive now been on three hikes with Soul Adventures, each somehow more impressive than the last. The most recent through the Mnweni Valley. Mnweni is Picture perfect. Breathtakingly beautiful and highly recommended.

All my Drakensberg hikes have been with Soul Adventures and it’s been a great experience. Patrick’s jokes never get old ????. I love a challenge so I booked 2 hikes back to back over 5 days and it’s one of the best things I’ve done for myself this year. If you have the time I’d recommend this, it’s the best way to disconnect and recharge!
Did I mention Patricia the cook and barista? He’ll even carry your bag for you if you carry his!
