things to do

GET READY FOR YOUR NEXT ADRENALINE RUSH

Mountainous fresh air brings out the best fitness side of us all. Hiking or walking in a world heritage site, the Okahlamba World Heritage site at Monks Cowl reserve is one of the most breathtaking adventures. Be left with wonderment and awe as you scan the panoramic views of the Drakensberg. Easily accessible and well maintained hikes for the less experienced walkers as well as challenging hikes for the more adventurous and experienced hikers. Guided hikes are available where skilled and equipped guides are needed to lead you through your Drakensberg experience.

Trail running and biking has become very popular. Cathkin trails and the Trail Blazers fund have been active in establishing clean cut and well maintained mountain trails in and around the Champagne Valley. A 26 km looped trail passes from resort to resort, through the pine plantations, Valley Bakery, Chocolate Bar and Craft Brewery. Berghaven neighbours the famous Champagne Sports Golf Course which also offers putt putt for the whole family.
