Tugela Falls Hike via Sentinel Peak

Discover one of the most challenging and incredible hikes in the Royal Natal National Park (and perhaps of South Africa as well) to the Tugela Falls via Sentinel Peak, close to the South-African and Lesotho border. The trail is a steep ascent to the top that combines paved footpath, narrow trails and a long chain of vertical ladders (for almost a kilometre). People who are afraid of heights are advised not to undertake the hike. The views throughout the hike are breathtaking. The Tugela Falls are among the highest waterfall in the world plunging 948 metres from the Mont-Aux-Sources into the valley. This hike is sure to be unforgettable.
