It was a very thought of wandering these mountains that first attracted Brian. He's remained a firm fan even since. He's even written a book about the hotel's history and his experience here.-It's so different from anything else you can find anywhere
The same party that fought for and won freedom of speech in South Africa is now being accused of spearheading a campaign to bully the media. So is the African National Congress, or ANC, really trying to push the country back into days went apartheid
The dunes are so big, up to 120 meters in fact, that they are permanent structures. The wind can do little to alter their size and shape. And like the cave yesterday, they contain some secrets. Long after the Homo sapiens first introduced shellfish i
SouthAfrica is a country that always creates an impression. We know of its diversepopulation, the troubled history of apartheid, and its rebirth as a globaltravel destination. I've been a fan of this country for many years. Butthis is my chance to go
You are a female Zulu mountain guide. Im not being patronizing, but there arent many of those around. Actually, Ive never heard one but me. The South African nation is made up of so many different tribes, but the Zulu ethnic group is the largest in S
I'll steadly wire my way up, the Mbambonja Valley. Day One finishes with the welcome site of Cathedral Peak Hotel by overnight spot. The next day my climb follows the traditional walker's route. After swinging around into a hidden valley, my walk ste
All ready in my walk, I can see how changeable conditions here can be. A build-up of clouds often leads to thunderstorms in the afternoon, a bit of problems for walkers like me, but it does add us an air of mystery to the place. Did you know that, ap

Day two, and rather worryingly, the weather doesnt seem to be improving. It also requires a painfully early start. Its an 18-kilometer round trip from the hotel to the summit, which most hikers tackle in one go, averaging eight to nine hours of stead
An unexpected break in the weather means I am able to make one more stab at the summit. -It's difficult to believe this is the same spot as yesterday without the rain. You can actually see. And look at that vista! With the spring back into my stab, t

elusive peak. -Come on. Let's get one last view. Well, that last gravel was worth it. -It was. -So what about 2,500 meters up here which is about 8000 feet?What's this summit called? -Doesn't have a name. -Doesn't have a name? -No. Doesn't have a
This is very peculiar. The Tourist Office is locked tight and it doesnt look as if its been open for business, well, I dont know, for a very, very long time, if ever. Theres a feeling that Riemvasmaak doesnt quite fire on *. They advertise walking tr
But today Riemvasmaak is fully restored -- an unlikely settlement with a famous past, and quite possibly, a future full of visitors like me. But before I head out into the green Kalahari, lets take an aerial look at the route Ive prepared. From the c
One river has single-handedly created whats known as the Green Kalahari. But my starting point is anything but green. This is true frontier country. That way is Namibia. And there, well, desert emptiness. Luckily for me, the Orange River has sculpted
there was a big movement from the consumer side from seeded grapes to seedless grapes and which the UK eaters only talks seedless grapes. What are we like as grape eaters, are we fussy grape eaters? Yeah, I think you are a bit too fussy. What do we l
Long before this was a national park, it held the fascination of a man who wrote this lovely old book, Mr. GA Farini and he fell in love with this place when it was undiscovered, wild frontier land. The Great Farini, otherwise known as William Hunt,
