Offer the course of the last few months visitors to the Southern Drakensberg were encouraged to submit their photographs of our beautiful part of the world using #SouthDrak4Seasons on social media.  As the hashtag suggests entries had to be submitted to showcase one of the four seasons and four amazing prizes were up for grabs for the four best photographs!

Here at Umzimkulu River Lodge we were delighted to take part and provide a prize for the winner of the Autumn category. The stunning entry by Wynand Grobler showcased the misty waters at Kenmo Lake with the many colours of autumn in the Drakensberg reflected in the still water. Wynand wins a five-night stay for four guests including bed and breakfast to the value of R8 900 in Malachite Cottage at Umzimkulu River Lodge!
