As by request, another fun filled Spring Day outing to start the summer!
And this year we will be doing it at the always popular de Wildt 4x4 trail close to Brits.
This is a nice family outing with easy to moderate obstacles. There are escape routes at all the obstacles, so new people to off road as well as the regulars, all are Welcome! Trail is also new vehicle and 2x4 friendly, and there will be lots of experience to make you comfortable taking your vehicle out to learn what it is capable of doing!
There are braai facilities so bring along the family, some drinks and meat for after the trail and we can enjoy a lovely Spring day in the company of AWESOME PEOPLE!! (Quoted Rafs)
Have a look at the de Wildt 4x4 website for pictures and details about this great trail!
