Mnweni Pass to Easter Cave | A Drakensberg Adventure in 4k

After an incredible first hike in Mnweni a few months earlier, I got the chance to return to this breathtaking region of the Drakensberg in September, this time with Gabriel, Simeon, Allen, Amy and my dad. After spending the first night in the valley next to Shepard's Cave, we made our way up Mnweni Pass, and tented near Mponjwane Cave. We then hiked across the escarpment to Easter Cave, were we spent our third night, and then followed Ntonjelane Pass back to our cars.
Hiking in Spring meant warmer conditions than we'd had on our last trip, and we spent some time at a fantastic swimming spot over lunchtime on the first day. In the lower parts of the Berg, the Greyia's were magnificent in full bloom, and are unique to the Drakensberg. From the first evening all the way until the third afternoon, we had to contend with some pretty extreme winds, but on the last morning, we woke up to a surreal sunrise above a blanket of clouds, and I could capture for some footage with my drone.
Music by Lord Huron and Simeon Goddard
The soundtrack from 5:58 onwards is the work of Simeon himself! He's a highly talented composer, and I strongly recommend exploring more of his music. You can find more of what he does at / @sim8057
