Crow’s Nest is a summit on the plateau inland from the Amphitheatre edge, with the Tugela River curving around it. A visit from the Sentinel Car Park side continues beyond the Chain Ladders; it is not the same destination as the Tugela Falls viewpoint.

Explore the Royal Natal area: Royal Natal offers valley and foothill walks beneath the Amphitheatre, as well as access to the wider northern Drakensberg landscape. Choose the correct starting point for the route you intend to follow. Read our Royal Natal Nature Reserve guide for more about the area and planning a visit.
