Does anybody know something about Kondomo. It belongs to the EC parks board. Where is it situated in the Baviaanskloof?

Use this link and click on "map" on the left. Click twice more until the map shows all the campsites and private accomodation spots.

Genugtig, maar dis 'n nuttige kaart hierdie! Ek het lankal besluit die eerste ver plek waarheen ek wil gaan, is Baviaans - het 'n jaar of twee gelede op die BaviaansWes-gasteplaas oorgebly, wat ook op die kaart is - en met hierdie kaart en al sy links kan 'n mens baie lekker beplan en kyk waar jy wil bly. Die probleem is net om te kies, want daar is so baie plekke en die een is mooier as die ander...

2 plekke waar ons meer as een keer was en wat ek defnitief sal aanbeveel is:
Bakkrans en Timbila, anderkant Willowmore. Bakkrans sal ek hou vir wanneer dit bietjie warmer is en Timbila moet jy een van die 2 tentkampe probeer.
Makkedaat het ook 'n lekker groot dam vir die somer om te swem.

Baie dankie vir die kaart. Definitief baie handig.
Is daar dalk 'n Restaurant wat jy kan aanbeveel aangesien ons Kersfees daar sal wees

Ek's nie so seker van eetplekke in the kloof nie. Daar is wel 'n eetplek vir ligte etes aan die Patensie kant van Makkedaat. Hulle het 'n Bonsai kwekery ook. Ek kan nie 'n foto kry met die plek se naam nie.
Die Royal Herberg Hotel in Willowmore behoort 'n goeie keuse te wees.

I was there 3 weeks ago. Very nice. I spoke to few people before I went and they suggest to me to rather do it from Patensie to Willowmore. We slept the first night at Kudu Kaya, beginning of the Baviaans which allow us enough time to go through it. The 2nd evening we slept over at Duiwekloof, next to Makkadaat. Makkadaat was full but duiwekloof was very nice. Specially for winter as there was a full braai room with kaggel & braai place with pooltable etc. Will try to get some pictures for you. The stretch from Kudu Kaya to makadaat was just too long. NExt time I will sleep over another night at Geelhoutbos or Doodsklip. Rooihoek (very beautifull) is very nice but there is a lot a monkeys. We braai there but they stole all our buns. I wouldn't sleep over there if I had a choice. It was an excellent trip and worth while

search for the trip report written by our very own Bongani on Nissan4x4 site . Very useful advise and report
2007/08/23, 02:50 PM #30
Where in Baviaanskloof is Prado Hill? I understand it's on a 4x4 trail, but which trail is it? Someone on the Weg forums would like to know.

Ek het nou net na al die kaarte van die baviaans gekyk wat ek het en kry net n Redhill my broer gebel en hy weet nie van so n plek nie
Is dit nie dalk waar n prado vas gesit het nie toe gee die mense hom daai naam

PM vir Zantus, wed julle hy sal weet.

Die plek het blykbaar sy naam gekry toe 'n ou met 'n Prado dit eers met die 22ste probeerslag en met duisende rande se skade tot bo kon maak. Die nuwe LC70's is op dié roete bekendgestel en hulle is blykbaar amper almal met die eerste probeerslag tot bo. Dié wat dit nie die eerste slag gemaak het nie, het onervare of nie-4x4-georiënteerde bestuurders gehad. Of só sê hulle in elk geval!

Hi, just camped there this weekend.
Not bad, bit too close to the road to my liking. Try the websites: www.baviaans.net for info on kondomo - under the parksboard. And look at www.baviaans.co.za and find Kudu Kaya under where to stay - been there twice and it is stunning
2007/09/27, 09:15 PM #35
I think I've just found Prado Hill! I remembered that I had the SA4x4 issue in which they looked at the LC70, so I had another look at the article. They just mention the name of the 4x4 and hunting facility, Tuinskloof, on which the launch took place, but a quick google of that threw up this article - http://www.motoring.co.za/index.php?...icleId=3781129 - in which they mention the ill-fated Prado. 'Tis a wonderful thing, this Google...

I can recommend staying at Piet & Griet Krugers farm, Zandvlakte - Griet is a great cook and the place is always spotless. Zandvlakte is the first farm west of the wilderness area. Look at http://www.baviaanskloof.com/ The 4x4 route at Rus-en-Vrede just a bit more west follows farmtracks south across the Kouga mountains and ends near Kareedouw. Not a very difficult route but with beautiful views.

Die Bonsaikwekery is "Speekhout".

Ek ry die naweek van 26 Oktober hierdeur. Slaap die Vrydagaand op Makkedaat en Saterdag weet nog nie - miskien Kudu Kaya? om Sondagaand in PE te wees.
Of is Kudu Kaya te ver?
