Durban to White River is an approximately 3.5-hour flight. You can also drive. Plan for slightly colder nights when traveling from Durban in September since evenings lows in White River dip to 16°C. Wrap up your sightseeing on the 26th (Tue) early enough to drive to Graskop.

Developed as a campsite for gold miners, Graskop has been transformed into a gateway point for exploring the area's many natural attractions.

Kick off your visit on the 27th (Wed): stroll through Elephant Sanctuary and then tour the pleasant surroundings at Elephant Whispers.
