"Weskussers én Kapenaars se sorgvrye kostelose kampdae op Trekoskraal is finaal getel.
Intussen het sommige op sosiale media geskryf, kom wat wil, hulle kamp Paasnaweek."

The road is in Extreme disrepair and the worst corrigated road you'll see this side of the Orange river.
If you have false teeth, better strap them down good!
Your vehicle don't have rattles, congratulations you will have your very open 'rammelkas' afterwards.

So it seems like you can still camp there, but at your own risk and expect some hostility? I surely don't want to go there and have hillbilly type rubbish around me.

Tietiesbaai will be your best option.
Coastal campsites used to be a nice place. Like so many others back in the 80's
Sadly there are not that many two legged creatures on this planet who respect nature and fellow bi-peds' privacy and peace anymore.
Littering and disrespect for other's has become the public past time it seems.

That is an 3 year old news article.
People still camp there atm.

Well technicaly two years and mine months.
This was just a quick search for that specific article. I am sure there has been more development surounding this.
But that's like saying the current tax law is so-and-so old. It isn't valid anymore.
Just because people still exceed the speed limit doesn't make it legal.

As indicated, based on current info, it would appear that its not legal. Unless there is specific (formal) indications of any change; stay away.

I'll hook the [email protected] and go investigate both one weekend.

I went there on Friday to just look around, my 1st visit and spoke to a couple of campers, they camping without any issues, currently about 18 camping couples.
The development is apparently not going ahead and the one piece of land is available for R6m.

Die kampers het weereens laas jaar oor Kersfees en Nuwejaar in 2019 lekker gekamp by Trekos. Ek wat daar vir 'n dag uitstappie en die manne en gesinne het lekker gekamp. Daar is geen rede om bekommerd te wees nie, die gekamp sal daar gebeur toe diep in die toekoms in. Die geraas van die plek toemaak en ontwikkel sal nie gou gebeur nie, daar is buitendien nie geld nie, elke jaar of twee raas iemand wat nie eers daar bly nie oor die mense wat daar kamp om stemme te wen. Gebruik die plek en maak skoon agter jou. Daar word wel rommel gestrooi maar die meeste mense wat daar kamp, kamp al daar vir jare...As jy nie daar kamp nie sal die beste raad wees om jou te weerhou van negitiewe kommetaar..Kamp en geniet die lewe wat daar nog oor is in die land..

The private land owners, and Dept of Public Works have made it clear that no camping is allowed. Simple.

Ek het al oor die jare oorweeg om te gaan kyk maar ja, ek is ook maar versigtig. Sien uit na die terugvoer.
By the way, as jou wa 'n strontstoter is, wat maak dit jou Land Rover... .

Dit maak hom baie vol ....

ja right..must be a department 1500km from the camping spot..Ons sal daar kamp solank ons lewe en niemand gaan ons stop nie...verstaan dit tog..die Weskus behoort aan ONS..

How would you like it if people arrived and started camping on your front lawn.
2019/01/21, 06:02 PM #19
Dis presies hoekom ek die vraag in die eerste plek gevra het.
2019/01/22, 01:21 PM #20
Jy moet die plek gaan besoek en vir jou self kyk..dis 'n stuk barre kusgrond waar plaaslike mense al vir donkie jare kamp. My ouers het daar gekamp as kinders saam met hulle ouers en ek is al diep in die 60..Dis 'n tradisie wat al donkie jare aangaan en die wat nou so teen die kas skop is mense wat ander niks gun nie...niemad vertrap niemand nie, niemand steel of beroof iemand se grond nie, niemand kamp op niemand se voorstoep nie...daar sal altyd die wees wat in die stede bly wat te veel te se het oor dinge waarvan hulle niks weet nie en per ongeluk iets op FB gelees en nou is hulle net die wortel vir Sannie. Los die mense laat hulle kamp en hulle self geniet..die wat daar kamp en die wat graag daar wil gaan kamp, doen jou ding en geniet die lewe wat oorbly..gee die volgende ou 'n sitplek in die Son en hou op om so afgunstig te wees oor 'n stukke brak grond..
