4x4 Trail West Coast Saturday 4 August

Post by pietpetoors »

Niel, George and Myself will be visiting a new 4x4 trail on the West Coast on Saterday Morning. Who wants to come with??? :D

The trail is on a farm opposite to the West Coast National Park.
If you drive past the Yzerfontein crossing, 11 Km further you will get the bottom gate of the West Coast National Park. After about 1Km you will get a bunch of Bloekom trees next to the road with place for cars to stop. After those trees, about 500m further, the first gate you get to the right, that is where we will be.

We are still deciding on a time, but Niel said that want to leave CPT by about 7 AM. It should only be about 110Km from places like Belville so it seems as if we will get together at the gate from 8h00 till 8h30.
