The Drakensberg
Gods Window at the southern extremity of the Blyde River Canyon Nature Reserve gives a view along part of the immense Drakensberg escarpment, of sheer cliffs plunging over 700 metres to the lowveld; Bourke's Luck Potholes is on the Reserve's western boundary where sustained underwater vortices in the Treur River's plunge pools have eroded cylindrical potholes or giant's kettles. The Drakensberg is the eastern part of the Great Escarpment, which encloses the central Southern African plateau.
