The Lost Culture of Africa

Pickup at Lodge in Underberg or Himeville and transfer to Cobham Nature Reserve, in the Southern Drakensberg! Also known as the Ukahlamba-world heritage site. A story of people who left a legacy of living in the wilderness of Africa for tens of thousands of years in harmony with nature and left hints and clues of their culture on the walls of caves and shelters in the form of incredibly artistic and spiritual paintings.

The San, or Bushmen, are the indigenous people of Southern Africa. Their ancient rock paintings and carvings (collectively called rock art) are found all over Southern Africa in caves and on rock shelters. The San depicted non-human beings, hunters, and half-human half-animal hybrids. The half-human hybrids are believed to be the medicine men or healers.” Their depictions of these medicine men give modern humans evidence that they did do the healing dances.

The walks vary from 1 hour, 1 day, or overnight Hiking Tours, depending on the site chosen, time available, and level of fitness.

Besides the San Culture and Paintings the fauna, flora, and geology of the Ukahlamba Drakensberg Park will be explained, It is one of our World Heritage sites and was named in 2001, the 2nd World Heritage Site, named in South Africa!

Various birdlife, from the Cape Vulture, Bearded Vulture-Lammergeier, and the Jackal Buzzed. The smaller birds are the Orange Breasted Rock Jumper and Sentinal Rock Thrush. Animals ate the Hyrax-mountain Rock Rabbit or Dassie, commonly known, as the Eland Antilope baboons and Mountain Reedbuck. If very lucky, you might even see a Mountain Leopard, but is very rare!
