Waypoints

Spookpoort or Oupoort

A short pass on the R364 between Klein fontein and Traveller’s Rest that is by repute haunted in various ways. A favorite story is of the motorcyclist who found a baby lying in the road at the top of the pass. At a loss for what to do, he secured it behind him inside his jacket and proceeded slowly down the road. Towards the bottom of the short pass he felt a tap on his shoulder and turned around to find himself staring into the face of a wrinkled old man. In his fright he left the road; when he had recovered from the crash there was no sign of either baby or old man. He was all right but his bike was, of course, a total write-off
