Africa's Dragon Mountains (S29E05)

In the south east of the African continent south of Kilimanjaro lies the highest mountain range, the Maloti-Drakensberg or Dragon Mountains! Like the giant beast after which it is named, this impressive wall of basalt stretches its scaly spine out over 300kms, soaring at times to heights of 3 000 metres and levelling off into the Mountain Kingdom of Lesotho. As formidable as these mountains may seem, they have become a living landscape with the energy of people from the past and present interacting with mythical creatures, supernatural beings and nature. This is a haunted landscape in which the secular and sacred meet and meld; one in which every waterfall, pool and rock is imbued with value and intent. As a result, those who walk on these mountains are reminded of a primordial world; when continents were molded from a huge land mass with Africa at its core. (official distributor synopsis)
