Drakensberg Mountains: Alpine Heath Resort, Natal Highlands and Battlefields
Chalet Sleeps 6
Alpine Heath invites you to surround yourself with the splendour of crystal-clear streams and mountain-fresh air, while experiencing the luxury and serenity of our resort complex.
Considered to be one of Southern Africa's premier conference and holiday venues, Alpine Heath Resort allows you to relax in the comfort of an exclusive mountain village nestled in the midst of the Northern Drakensberg. The resort offers superb chalet accommodation, fine dining, an abundance of indoor and outdoor activities and the finest state-of-the-art conference facilities in Southern Africa.
With a backdrop of the stunning mountains of the Northern Drakensberg, this stylish Afro-Swiss designed resort blends perfectly into the landscape. The village square is situated at the centre of the resort with the 100 three-bedroom chalets conveniently situated around the main buildings that surround the square.
The magnificent Drakensberg mountain range towers over the rest of KwaZulu-Natal at the highest altitude south of Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. This spectacular area includes the uKhahlamba-Drakensberg Park, which has recently been declared a World Heritage Site by Unesco. It features 200-million-year-old geological formations as well as a wealth of San (Bushman) rock art: over 35 000 individual paintings at 600 sites.
Numerous hiking and horse riding trails awaits the adventurous explorers. Back at the resort you can also cool off in our two crystal-clear swimming pools surrounded by breath-taking scenery, while the kids play on a super jungle gym. And at our well-stocked trout dams sparkling in the serenity of the Drakensberg, what could be more relaxing than the rhythmic swish of your line as you drop your fly on a nearby rise?
