koedoesberg pass

  • This 3 km long pass packs plenty of action and grand scenery into it's short distance, gaining 208 vertical metres in the process. It's a slow, bumpy drive and you will be negotiating no less than 28 bends, corners and curves of which 7 exceed 90 degrees. The road surface is narrow and rough with a strong possibility of picking up a puncture on the hundreds of thousands of sharp rocks.

    The road traverses the Koedoesberge (a strong indicator that kudu were plentiful here in the 19th century) and has its western end virtually on the border of the Western and Northern Cape.

    When watching the video look for the truck and tractor wreck down the side of the ravine at 2min 05 secs.

    EDIT 7th June, 2022. We have been informed by a reliable source that this pass has now been closed to the public by the farm owner.
