Wolkberg Wilderness Area

Wolkberg Wilderness Area, Protected wilderness area in Limpopo, South Africa.

Wolkberg Wilderness Area is a 22,000-hectare protected area in Limpopo, South Africa, centred on the Wolkberg, a Drakensberg subrange about 14 km southeast of Haenertsburg and 60 km east of Polokwane. Its highest point, Ysterkroon, reaches 2,127 m. The Mohlapitse River, a tributary of the Olifants, crosses the park, and the office, parking and campsite stand at Klipdraai forest station.

The Wolkberg Wilderness Area was proclaimed in 1977, covering 22,000 hectares around the 2,127-metre Ysterkroon. It is a wilderness area, not a nature reserve, and lies in the Wolkberg, a Drakensberg subrange about 14 km south-east of Haenertsburg and 60 km east of Polokwane.

The name Wolkberg means "cloud mountain" in Afrikaans, a reference to the mist that often covers the peaks. The Mohlapitse River, a tributary of the Olifants, runs through the area, and the Klipdraai forest station at the entrance holds the office, parking and campsite.

Access requires a permit, with basic camping facilities located at Klipdraai forest station and along the Mohlapitse River. Hiking trails are marked, but visitors should prepare for changing weather and uneven ground.

The Wolkberg's name means "Cloud Mountain" in Afrikaans, a reference to the mist that often covers its peaks. The area's highest point, Ysterkroon, reaches 2,127 metres, and the whole 22,000-hectare expanse was proclaimed a wilderness area in 1977.
