Sani Pass

The Sani's average gradient is only 1:20, thanks to the long easy gradient section in the foothills of the Drakensberg, but certain sections are as steep as 1:4 and it is here that most drivers come unstuck when the going gets slippery. The large number of car wrecks down the ravines bear mute testimony to the dangers.

Sani Pass has been dubbed the mother of all South African mountain passes. Perfect for those seeking adventure! Built-in circa 1950 nestled between KZN and Lesotho, the pass remains a much-loved adventure destination for South Africans and international visitors alike.
