TWEERIVIEREN - NOSSOB 4X4 ROETE
Na laasjaar wat ons ons jaarlikse Kalahari trip geskip het was ek en die Blond uitgehonger vir die park maar ons konnie plek kry in die SA kampe tydens ons vakansie hierdie jaar nie. Bots het soos gewoonlik plek in hul kampe gehad, maar daar was ook nog plek op die 4x4 roete Nossob toe en dit het na n plan geklink!
Soos ons met n draai vanaf Grabouw, kuier kuier weskus op to by Lamberts baai en van da Clanwilliam toe vir ons eeste aand se kamp by n citrusplaas ( Lebanon ) so 10km suid van die dorp.

Die Saterdagoggend vroeg is ons Cederberge deur Calvinia se rigting in met die grondpaaie maar nie sonder n halfpad stoppie vir iets vir die keel nie.

Re: TWEERIVIEREN - NOSSOB 4X4 ROETE
Vanaf Calvinia druk ons toe deur ( natuurlik so op vakansietyd ) tot op Upington en na ons inkopies vir die volgende paar dae skiet ons in die skemerte deur tot by Askham, net so onder die 200km verder. Na die dag se baie myle trek ons so teen 20h00 in by Molopo Lodge se kamp vir n lekker nagrus. Na n lekker ontbyt by die lodge is ons daar weg vir die laaste paar kilo's tot by Tweerivieren

Re: TWEERIVIEREN - NOSSOB 4X4 ROETE
Die beste van alles was dat alhoewel niemand regtig mekaar voor die tyd geken het nie ons almal soos n handskoen bymekaar ingepas het. Wat dit nog meer besonders maak is dat die groep uit 2 Amerikaners uit Taxes ( die dame n 4ster generaal in die "UN Army" ) 2 Duitsers, 6 Suid afrikaners en n Kanadese gids bestaan het :wth: n Uiteenlopende klomp mense maar almal het hul gate uit geniet en nie eenkeer was daar enigsens n ongelukkigheid oor enigeiets gewees nie. Nie eens te praat oor die mal grappe en onderwerpe om die BBQ, sorry kampvuur in die aand nie.

Lekker, Leon!
Watse "geheimpie" praat jy van?
Watse "geheimpie" praat jy van?
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!

Re: TWEERIVIEREN - NOSSOB 4X4 ROETE
Die geheimpies is maar die goetjies wat jy mis as jy normaalweg net deur die park ry. Die gids vertel en wys jou mos van die plante, insekte en dingetjies wat n mens nie op jou eie raaksien en kennis van het nie. Soos bv die gemsbokkomkommer en die geleentheid om dit te proe ens.

Nice report Leon. How does the booking work with that trail? Do you buy a 'slot' in a convoy with others on a scheduled departure?
What was the cost for the trail? I'm usually reluctant to do these 'guided' trails but have been thinking about this one for a while.

Ja ek is maar bietjie spesiaal hoor - Kyk die Blond moet helfde van die 4L se brandstof betaal so ek los haar as sy wil werk....solank ek net nie afgeskeep word nie! Met haar tipe werk kan sy gelukkig van enige plek aan die gang bly.

Re: TWEERIVIEREN - NOSSOB 4X4 ROETE
Nou ja so kom alle goeie dinge tot n einde. Oppad terug huis toe het ons in n bitter nat en koud Calvinia by die Hantam huis oorgeslaap. Die volgende oggend is ons met die Ceres-karoo pad deur tot by die N1 waar ons met die spierwit Matroosberge begroet is en al wat toe oorbly was wiele pomp en die laaste end tot by die huis waar die vark en die honde vir ons gele en wag het.
Die Tweerivieren/Nossob roete word deur SANPARKS bespreek en kos R2340 per voertuig. Dit strek oor 4 dae en 3 nagte. Elke maand word begin punt geroteer tussen Tweerivieren en Nossob om die roete te help onderhou.
Jy moet genoeg water vir drink en was/stort saam neem vir die 4 dae aangesien geen water op die roete beskikbaar is nie. Daar is wel longdrops by die kampplekke en n plekkie vir stort maar jy moet jou stortsak en water self opstel vir n wassie. Brandstof is nie n probleem nie solank jy volgemaak het by jou begin kamp. Dit roete was regtig rustig en daars nooit enige druk om erens te jaag of vinnig op te pak in die oggende of na middagete nie. Ek dink wel as jy iemand is wat bietjie ongeduldig is en miere in jou broek het gaan jy dalk opgestress raak want soos die Kalahari los almal tyd by die huis en is die bui regtig een van vakansie hou en rustigheid tydens die hele roete. Alhoewel daar geen geriewe was nie het al die dames op die trip die roete geniet en lekker saam gekuier. Ek en die Blond is ook nie regtig die tipe vir die begelyde roetes nie maar kan hierdie een regtig aanbeveel. Alhoewel ons gelukkig was met baie diere op die roete word die roete nie regtig bemark om klomp wild te sien nie, maar meer n deel van die park te ondek wat meestal ongesiens bly vir die algemene besoeker.

Re: TWEERIVIEREN - NOSSOB 4X4 ROETE
Daars n maksimum van 6 voertuie op die roete en ons het natuurlik maar net n booking vir onsself gemaak en by die ander ingeskakel. Die roete begin elke Maandagoggend 9h00 by Nossob of Tweerivieren. Afgesien van 1 of 2 duine is die roete maklik en enige voertuig met lowrange sal dit maklik kan maak. Sleepwaens word glad nie toegelaat nie. Hier is SANPARKS se beskrywing van die roete
Nossob 4 x 4 Eco Trail
General Information
The trail runs through the dunes between Twee Rivieren and Nossob camps.
Starting point at Twee Rivieren or Nossob changes on a monthly basis; Twee Rivieren on even months, and Nossob on uneven months.
The trail departs on Mondays, and terminates on Thursdays.
The trail departs every Monday, except for the 2 weeks over Christmas and New Year, when it will be closed.
Departure time is 09:00 but may change according to the season- ascertain with reception upon arrival.
Duration of the trail is three nights and four days.
Minimum two, maximum five vehicles - No trailers.
Participation is totally self catered including food, waterfor drinking, showers and vehicle, firewood, tents and vehicles. Don't forget to bring a braai grid.
Campsites consist of a “long drop”, shower bag and fireplace without grids. Only 4 x 4 vehicles allowed. Low range a prerequisite.
All refuse must be removed.
From the starting point to the next refueling point is approximately 300km.
Tourists will be expected to help repair ruts they’ve made in the road- spades will be provided.
Hand-held radios will be provided for all vehicles for the duration of the trail.
Cost
The cost is per vehicle per 5 occupants (current tariff: R2 340 per vehicle) plus the daily conservation levy.
It is possible to continue with the Gemsbok Wilderness Trail in Botswana starting at Polentswa. (Bookings to be made at Botswana Parks and Reserve Reservations P.O.Box 131, Gabarone, Botswana. Tel: +267 318 0774; Fax: +267 318 077522).
SANParks reserve the right to cluster several small or single bookings to make up a full trail.
Sincere thanks go out to ToyotaCare and TGMO, as well as the Honorary Rangers for the sponsorship of a trail lead vehicle and rooftop tent.
Useful information
As part of this trail you are advised to book the night before and after the trail at either Twee Rivieren or Nossob depending on the direction of the trail at the time in order to accommodate traveling times and distances between rest camps.
Equipment includes amongst other things: proper spade, tyre pressure gauge, torch and protection against grass seeds after a good rainy season.
Do not overload your roofrack if equipped. They tend to get damaged.
Summer temperatures could reach 45°C and during winter it could go down to -10.
One bundle of firewood per night per vehicle should be enough in summertime.
A guide accompanies trailists with his own vehicle and makes regular interpretative stops to highlight places of interest.
Distances traveled per day on the trail are between 50km and 65km. That leaves you with ample time to enjoy nature and pitch camp.
Overhanging branches might scratch vehicles; if needed, gear loppers will be available to cut branches that overhang into the trail.

Useful information
As part of this trail you are advised to book the night before and after the trail at either Twee Rivieren or Nossob depending on the direction of the trail at the time in order to accommodate traveling times and distances between rest camps.
Equipment includes amongst other things: proper spade, tyre pressure gauge, torch and protection against grass seeds after a good rainy season.
Do not overload your roofrack if equipped. They tend to get damaged.
Summer temperatures could reach 45°C and during winter it could go down to -10.
One bundle of firewood per night per vehicle should be enough in summertime.
A guide accompanies trailists with his own vehicle and makes regular interpretative stops to highlight places of interest.
Distances traveled per day on the trail are between 50km and 65km. That leaves you with ample time to enjoy nature and pitch camp.
Overhanging branches might scratch vehicles; if needed, gear loppers will be available to cut branches that overhang into the trail.
