Itinerary description

|
Show original
Departed from Die Hell BushCamp to the top, exciting part with heavy rainfall. Also drove the 2nd half of Swartbergpass further north. Really worth it (!)
Refueled in Prince Albert and drank coffee. Super nice town and worth it.. in the next few days we won't see much anymore..
Then route taken via gravel road - quite a bit but very long and eventually becomes monotonous ....
(better to drive back to the R407 to drive east towards the Baviaanskloof - purely in terms of time).
