Monk's Cowl Campsite

An Ezemvelo camping ground at the end of the R600 in the Champagne Valley, the access point for the Mlambonja and Mdedelo wilderness areas of the central Drakensberg. Most of the area's day and overnight hikes, including Sterkspruit Falls and the Sphinx, start from the camp. A listing gives 38 sites, 12 of them with power, with basic braai stands; a small shop sells firewood and charcoal, and there is a tea garden at the entrance.
