Not a very good option. Very slippery and steep roads.

We went down Naude's last year June holiday with a Conqueror trailer no problems.
The road from Rhodes to the top was OK, but down not in a good condition.

Fox, you must drive the pass, very nice, windy, snow. Cars coming from the front in the snow. Woman screaming, children crying. Very strange smell in the car. Only you can do it.

I work in that area but has never been to Naudes Nek. The places I drive to is also spectacular, there is a section of tar called Satans Nek, ofter covered in mist. Very much like Drakensberg. We are building a water purification works and then pumping it up to the top of the mountains via a series of 3 pump stations. That is probably why I do not make an effort to go on organised 4x4 trips. I see these beautiful areas virtually daily. The one place that I completed recently took 3/4 of an hour to do 22km and then I walked down the mountain to get to the end of the operation, another hour or so. There are still some areas where there are only the "tweespoor" roads that we "caused" and of course baboons and vultures. The best is that I get paid to do this, as they say, somebody has to do it, why not me.

Nog nooit gedoen as dit gereen het nie maar elke keer nog plat karre gekry op die pad wat dit baie gemaklik ry!!

Hierdie wat ek nou hier oor skryf le in die voormalige Transkei. Daar is 'n grondpad pas wat afdraai van die Ugie - Langeni Forest teerpad na Coglan. Coglan le weer op die Umtata - Queenstown teerpad. Coglan het 'n garage en baie taxis. Die pas is nie baie lank nie maar nou, plek plek is daar net-net plek vir twee karre om by mekaar te ry. Daar is geen veiligheid barrier nie en gelukkig groei die Black Wattle teen die pad sodat jy nie die gapende afgrond kan sien nie, en nie almal wat die pad gebruik is bang vir die dood nie. Dit is egter 'n pad wat baie min mense ken of ry. Daar is verder nog afdraai paaie wat mens na mooi uitsigte toe vat bv die pad wat weer na die Elliot - Ugie toe terug draai. Dan is daar ook nog die Manzimdaka gemeenskap waar ek tot 'n paar maande gelede gewerk het wat werklik pragtige uitsigte het. Die pad wat naManzimdaka loop eindig daar. Indien mens meer wil sien of loop moet jy fiks wees en bereid wees om voet te slaan teen die berg af en dan weer terug op - so 2 ure se stap/klim/klouter. Die gemeenskap was nooit vyandig of lus vir moeilikheid maak terwyl ek daar gewerk het nie. Die twee jaar wat ek daar gewerk het, het ek die Fortuner op 'n verlate plek parkeer sonder dat daar ooit sprake van 'n probleem was. Ek kan net dink wat mense sal betaal om daar te oornag en riond te stap, indien mens hutte daar sou bou vir vakansiegangers.
