Tradouw River - A Desert Gem (Entry #7 Short Film Awards 2024)

"The Tradouw river is easily one of the best runs in South Africa, but because it borders the arid Karoo desert, it unfortunately only runs once every two years or so. When it does though, you will see Cape paddlers flocking to Barrydale."
