Monks Cowl Adventure (Vultures Retreat/Didima/Witch Falls)

Over the Easter weekend  5 seasoned hikers (mad mountain people) set off from Monks Cowl in the Champagne Valley on an adventure. After a long walk in we tented at Keith Bush Camp. The next day we went up Grays Pass onto the Drakensberg escarpment, continuing to Didima Valley. We tented by the Didima/Witch Falls at an amazing place with stunning views. The following day we went to Vultures Retreat and tented in the valley above Grays Pass.....and more stunning views. The night was cold going down to minus 7 degrees. As usual I bathed in the cool crisp stream....taking my breathe away and tingly afterwards. The final day we went back down Grays Pass and to Monks Cowl (KZN Wildlife) An awesome weekend had by all, revitalized, renewed and recharged by the high Drakensberg mountain air.
