Physical address Matatiele, KwaZulu-Natal
Description
Located in the relatively unexplored southern Drakensberg, at the junction of the Eastern Cape, Kwa Zulu Natal and southern Lesotho, the Mehloding Trail takes you on a path of rich and diverse natural and cultural heritage.

The quaint and welcoming town of Matatiele, 70km from Kokstad forms the perfect gateway to the trail, half way between Underberg and Rhodes.

The route traverses spectacular mountainous foothills and rural villages, taking in visits to ancient rock-art, sparkling streams, indigenous trees, medicinal plants, craft projects and top of the world views.

The trail covers 4 days, with 4 overnight stops at simple but comfortable lodges constructed by local people with traditional designs and materials. A local guide accompanies all and provides information on the sights, attractions, local customs and language.

The Trail is wholly community owned and supports the Matatiele community through employment, procurement and social investment activities.
