Road trippin’<br />
Maybe it’s just us, but just the thought of being ‘locked down’ tends to make us want<br />
to get going! Whether you’re looking for a (safe) getaway right now, or are planning<br />
ahead for a road trip in a few months’ time, here are a couple of our favourite not-toofar-from-home<br />
road trip destinations …<br />
The Cavern Drakensberg<br />
Resort & Spa<br />
The Cavern is set in a secluded valley of the<br />
Northern Drakensberg. It is a site of conservation<br />
significance and there are guided morning hikes<br />
and horse rides on offer daily. A swimming pool,<br />
MTB trails and dams for fishing extend the offerings<br />
for outdoor adventure while the Forest Retreat<br />
Spa is a tranquil escape for complete relaxation.<br />
Standard or superior rooms are set in indigenous,<br />
landscaped gardens where you can relax in the<br />
exquisite mountain wilderness. Details: www.cavern.<br />

Dlinza Forest Aerial Boardwalk<br />
Just an hour from <strong>Ballito</strong> (so perfect for a<br />
day trip), the Dlinza Forest Aerial Boardwalk<br />
offers a magical experience. The 125m<br />
boardwalk is 10m high and ends in a 20m<br />
observation platform with spectacular views<br />
overlooking the 250-hectare indigenous<br />
forest. There are two marked hiking trails to<br />
enjoy the abundant bird life and fascinating<br />
fungi. Pack a picnic or grab a snack from the<br />
kiosk and enjoy secluded picnic/braai spots<br />
near safe and secure parking. Details: Nola<br />
