Drakensberg Amphitheatre
A long cliff wall curves above the green foothills of the northern Drakensberg.
The story behind the place
The Amphitheatre is a great rock wall in the northern Drakensberg, within the uKhahlamba-Drakensberg landscape. A long rim curves above deeply ribbed cliff faces, with green foothills below. Look toward the higher buttresses at either end, then follow the wall between them. Its name recalls the shape of an open theatre, although the rock wall was formed by natural processes.
