Main Caves
A large rock shelter near Giant's Castle camp, home to more than 500 San rock paintings, with reconstructed scenes for interpretation.
The Main Caves are a 30–40 minute walk from Giant's Castle camp. The rock shelter contains San rock paintings of eland, people, and hunting scenes. Guides are on site at set times, and there are models reconstructing San life. A small fee applies. The path is gentle and suitable for families, making it one of the most accessible rock art sites in the Drakensberg.
