Mashai is a high summit in the Garden Castle area, part of the southern Drakensberg skyline. Rhino Peak is a different mountain: the well-known hike up Mashai Pass leads to Rhino, rather than automatically including Mashai Peak. From left to right: Thaba Ngwangwe Peak, Walkers Peak and Mashai Peak

Explore the Garden Castle area: Garden Castle is part of the southern uKhahlamba-Drakensberg landscape, with high grasslands, rocky slopes and river valleys.
