The Carte Collection, comprising The Cavern Drakensberg Resort and Spa, Sungubala Eco Camp and Montusi Mountain Lodge is owned and managed by the five granddaughters of Bill and Ruth Carte, who started The Cavern back in 1941.  They have now collaborated to launch a brand new slackpacking trail called the Northern Drakensberg Nature Way, a 55km, four-day route linking four properties, namely The Cavern, Greenfire, The Berghouse and Montusi – with luggage transfers and hearty meals awaiting hikers at each stop and experienced guides, trained up and employed from the local community.
