  Hlatikulu Crane and Wetland Sanctuary
It is not known when the first Nguni-speaking people arrived in the Hlatikulu valley but it is doubtful if there were any permanent settlements prior to the 1800s as the area can be very cold in winter, and the potential for agriculture is low due to the harsh Drakensberg climate.
In 1873, Captain Durnford rode past the Hlatikulu valley in pursuit of Langalibalele, King of the amaHlubi.
