Directions:
From the South African side – just before the Vioolsdrift border post, there is a dirt road to your left saying “Kotzeshoop”. Turn left there, and follow that dirt road for about 20 km’s all along the Orange River to our base camp (on the South African side of the river).
From when you turn off from the N7 – travel for 10km on the dirt road and pass the Aquacade sign on your right hand side, continue on this road and you will pass the Rooiwal Shop also on your right hand side. Continue over the mountain, following the river on the right hand side for another 10 km until you see the sign board - The Growcery
