Thabana Ntlenyana approaching from Vergelegen

03 Sep 2014 12:03 #61681 by lightee
Hi anyone
I am looking for a GPS rout/track, to head up the mkhomazi pass to summit at thabana ntlenyana and then from there to sani pass top?
Both routes would be great but if not then just the pass will be great.
Thank you
clint :woohoo:

Hi Clint,

see the Grand Traverse GPS track download - this will help you from near the summit of Mkomazi up Thabana Ntlenyana (bearing in mind there are various routes you can take), and then on to Sani Pass via the inland route.

I do have tracks for Mkhomazi which I will upload when I get a gap along with some of the other requests.

Take nothing but litter, leave nothing but a cleaner Drakensberg.

Kind regards
Clint

Hi Intrepid
Thanks for that route. i was just wondering if you had a GPS route for nhlabeni river and pass, which confulences lower down with the mkhomazi.
This is the route we are going to use.
Sorry for the hassle.
Thanks
Clint

Do you mean Nhlangeni?
berg.co.za has a track for that:
ftp://www.berg.co.za/GPSData/Nhlangeni%20Pass.gdb

From what I know and have seen of Nhlangeni I'm not sure I would want to attempt it at night. Its very long and less trail-friendly than Mkhomazi. Good luck.

Take nothing but litter, leave nothing but a cleaner Drakensberg.

Thanks a lot intrepid

Hi lightee,

Thank you
