Hilux 4x4 Forum

Het uiteindelik die kans gekry om Sani Pass te gaan ry, was ook gelukkig om sneeu te kry. Met die afkom slag het daar n 4x2 Fortuner gesukkel om die tweede laaste draai na bo te maak. Ek het vir n oomblik gedink hy gaan teen die afgrond af. Dit was twee jong mense en hy kon glad nie op die ys ry nie. Dit was net so n gesukkel vir hom om agteruit te ry. Hy het toe gelukkig tot ons almal se verligting omgedraai. By die Lesotho grens is die voertuig toll R30................maar Saterdag het hulle die mense gerook, R30 vir n hilux, R60 vir n Jeep en R90 vir n landrover. En volgens ons gastehuis eienaar moes daar n kwitansie uitgereik word. Wel kom ons se maar net hulle het geskep Saterdag. Verder was dit vir ons n baie lekker trippie.

Nice - I was there end of April some years back, no snow, but it was 1/2" cold then already!

Time for another visit soon, before it's no longer a talking point.

Nice!

Never done it in the snow, would still like to at some point, but it's one of those bucket-list items that always seems to end up low on the priority list for some or other reason.

Very nice

JIP, certainly on the bucket list.

I did not see any road works but according to our guest house owner the Chinese are busy inside Lesotho, only a matter of time before they start with Sani. I recon it is going to be a couple of years to complete. Another interesting point is the Lesotho Toyota taxis, they are all 4x4 (sorry did not take any pics.) apparently you cannot registered them in SA

Nice Pics, did you see the Hilux club card i put against the bar a few years back

Sorry didn't see it, maybe I need glasses

Andre by watse gastehuis het julle gebly?

Op n plaas met die naam Highland Nook. Lekker kamplekke ook. Ek sal nie die rondawel aanbeveel waar ons gebly het nie maar die ander twee huisies is baie nice. Besoek gerus hul web site. Dit is sowat 23 km buite Underberg op die lower Lutheni pad. (grond pad) Baie vriendelike eienaars en jy kan gratis op hul 11000 hektaar plaas rondry, fantasitiese 4x4 paaie en uitkyk punte. Sal beslis weer soontoe gaan. Die plaas is 40km vanaf Sani Pass SA border kant. Dan is dit 8km tot bo, vat jou so n uur tot bo.

We camped there a few years ago, stunning place, but beware, lock everything up at night, we were robbed.
They took only the food, left pots, cups, plates and that sort of thing
Hopefully they have upgraded the security.

I say every year I must do it, I should just get in the tuna and do it!

Hi Neil, sorry to here about the theft at Highland Nook. It is a stunning farm and the owners are also very nice.

Sounds something like the raids we did as Sea Sprouts...
