Beaches & Battlefields
Travel north from Durban to discover one of the most beautiful and interesting regions of South Africa. The roads of KwaZulu-Natal twist and turn through stunning mountain scenery, scattered with the round houses and rural settlements of the native Zulu people.
For beaches and wildlife the north coast region is unbeatable. Hluhluwe National Park has abundant game and the World Heritage listed St Lucia Wetlands offer miles of pristine coastline.
Inland, the ‘Battlefields’ contain many historic sites from the Zulu and Boer Wars and to the west the mighty Drakensberg Mountains rise up to provide some of the best walking in South Africa.
