Where to camp & 4x4 in the CT area?
Hi guys,
We are taking a break now at the end of April and are wanting to do a bit of camping and 4x4ing hopefully in the same spot. Ideally some place with good clean abolutions and a view.
Any ideas???

Come now its not that bad im sure you can do it in a 4x2 with a difflock. If you stay in CT however you can do in with a platkar and tyres at 4 bar Now i understand why us capies are so good at offroading
IF YOU EVER FEEL TO TIRED TO CONTINUE, JUST DO IT ON YOU KNEES

Hier is Ou skip karavaanpark op Melkbosstrand dan is jy sommer 15 minute weg van Atlantis duine en 25 minute weg vanaf kaapstad self.
Die kamp plek is redelik netjies en so ook die ablusies

Re: Where to camp & 4x4 in the CT area?
You wont find many camping spots in CT itself, but within a 100-200km radius there are plenty. You can start in the Piketberg/Redelinghuys/Citrusdal area with:
Klein Tafelberg
Jakkalskloof
Scheppie Saus
Koningskop
Porterville will offer:
Waterval
Beaverlac
You could also go visit Mnr Piet Petoors in Langebaan if you can find him at home....
Then towards Worcester/Ceres/Touwsriver there are a few other nice spots:
Tierkloof
Leeuwenboschfontein
Matroosberg
Hermanus/Caledon/Overberg also have some nice camping spots with 4x4 trails. Ask meneer Stubbs (Maverick) all about them.
There are many more, but this is just off the top of my head. A good place to start will be http://www.driveout.co.za" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; where they have a listing of the camping/4x4 venues in the Western Cape area. If you want to be within a 25km radius of CT then Ou Skip is a good camp site, and as Jaco said, you'll be 15 minutes away from Atlantis Dunes.
I hope this helps...

and stay away from Hardekraaltjie, unless you love the City sounds, drunken beggars, 1300 Escorts doing burn outs, prostitutes on your doorstep, trucks using airbrakes and good ol La Bamba for midnight snacks (and if you get any type of food poisoning Tygerberg Hospital is on your doorstep!!! )

Sounds like my kinda place. Do you have to bring your own gun or do they supply you one on entry?Doctor V wrote:and stay away from Hardekraaltjie, unless you love the City sounds, drunken beggars, 1300 Escorts doing burn outs, prostitutes on your doorstep, trucks using airbrakes and good ol La Bamba for midnight snacks (and if you get any type of food poisoning Tygerberg Hospital is on your doorstep!!! )
