The farm offer 6 wild-camping options with no electricity or ablution facilities at the stands. There is a rustic but clean and maintained ablution facility about 300 meters from the campsites. If your preference is isolation and an authentic bush experie...

Camping in the Cederberg: Kagga Kamma Nature Reserve

We took a camping trip to Kagga Kamma Nature reserve in the Cederberg. We decided to share our experience and do a campsite review for campers that haven’t had the privilege to visit. We went hiking on both the scenic 7km and 4km routes and show you some of the rock-art and scenery that you can expect. #camping #gravelroads #offroad #offroadadventure #tankwakaroo #wildcamping #westerncape #offr...
Camping at Moed Farm, Tankwa Karoo - Calvinia Vleisfees Detour
Просмотров 16 тыс.Год назад
Before we went to Moed Farm in the Tankwa Karoo to spend a few nights camping, we took a detour to visit the annual Calvinia Festival (Calvinia Vleisfees) to see what it had to offer. On arrival at Moed Farm, we were pleasantly surprised by the effort that the owners have put into the building of the new ablution facilities in such an isolated area. This place is a real gem. Whether you prefer ...
Road Trip - March 2023 (Seweweekspoort; Swartberg Pass; Gamkaskloof; The Hell; Kruisrivier Camsite
Просмотров 855Год назад
Our trip in March 2023 took us along the Seweweekspoort to Calitzdorp. We took the R62 gravel road to the Swartberg Pass where we witnessed some breath-taking scenery in the Gamkaskloof on our way to The Hell. We spent one night in the Gamkaskloof and made our way back via the R62 and came across the Kruisrivier Guest Farm. This was a pleasant surprize as this campsite offered amazing views, cl...

Camping Weekend - Sanddrif, Cederberg

Dirt roads, sun and water. What more can you ask for on a weekend away? Sanddrif is a pristine campsite, a short drive away from the Cederberg Wine Farm that sells excellent wines and offer an exceptional wine tasting experience. The campsite is brilliantly maintained, the ablution facilities well kept, neat and modern and we will definitely be back. The swimming area "Die Maalgat", is a 15 min...

Road Trip - Northern Cape & Tankwa Karoo - Jacobsbaai, Die Mond, Augrabies, Khamkirri
Просмотров 2,4 тыс.2 года назад
Jacobsbaai, Gannabos, Die Mond and Kagga Kamma. That was the plan. But the weather turned and it was to rain in the Tankwa over the weekend. I know camping in the rain in a Rooftop Tent is “super fun”, but we decided to dodge the rain so Kagga Kamma was cancelled. We changed our plans on the spot, looked for sunnier pastures and drove criss-cross as if diesel was still cheap. We made the most o...

    Climate changes often over long periods of time but mostly likely there has been quite a bit of change relatively recently as massive herds of hundreds of thousands grazing animals were reported in the hinterland. That amout of biomass being put into the soil would have created great conditions for plants to grow, plants change the local weather believe it or not so you can see how SA was much less barren before as it is now

      Thanx for the comment. You 100% good to go with the RTT on any stand. Only thing, is the stands close to the water doesn’t have that much shade. I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the camp and ablutions… and it’s less than 200km’s from Cape Town.

      Hi Deon. I think we paid R150 per person per night to camp and they also charge a conservation fee of a[proximately R250 (one off). Big game is scares but birds are abundant, with smaller animals. You can check out their options for night safaris. Hope it helps
