We went on a road trip - Dirt roads around the Western Cape
Myself and my good friend Louw went on a one day road trip, I packed all my camera gear and due to the fact that we had problems with the one bracke, we had to cut the trip a bit shot. I would have loved to shoot some sunset landscapes, well that was the plan, but we ended up heading home as we did not feel like gettings tuck in the middle of now where.
So, this is just fun, enjoy and let us know if you liked this, maybe we do more of this in the near future!

This hike is for the adventurers. Suicide Gorge is a full day trip (17km, 8 hours) of adrenaline pumping outdoor adventure in the scenic Boland Mountains. It’s for those who have no fear. Suicide Gorge is a wet hike, ideal for summer; enjoy a water wonderland with spectacular canyon scenery, waterfalls and huge jumps.
Hike up the rugged gorge, arrive at a series of rock pools and test your courage by kloofing, a combination activity of walking, swimming and jumping. The major excitement is jumping off the cliffs into the fresh water. Get ready to jump from huge heights; jumps range from 3 to 20 metres high.
Experience adrenaline rushes, waterfalls and mountain pools
If you are a fit, brave and a little wild, kloofing Suicide Gorge will be an unforgettable experience for you. Daring leaps of seven or eight metres down waterfalls are compulsory. You must be willing to swim in cold water and not be afraid of heights. Remember, once in, the only way you're going to get out of this section of the Riviersonderend Mountains is via some gravity-defying jumps and scrambles.
Important to know
Please only do this hike if you are a fit and experienced hiker. It is advised to go with someone who has done this hike before. The route can be dangerous in extreme weather conditions.
The route is open from 1 November to 30 April; for reservations

THE CRAYFISH TRAIL ON THE WEST COAST WAY WILD ROUTE
The early morning sun warms your back and cast a golden glow on the landscape. The air is fresh and fragrant, the peppery smell of fynbos mingled with a salty tang from the ocean hidden by the distant dunes. Birds called, creatures scuttled in the undergrowth and your feet kick up little puffs of dust with each step. Welcome to the West Coast Way SA Wild Route, where nature is clearly in charge as you make your way to the start of the Crayfish Trail. What is the Crayfish Trail? It is a slack-packing trail that uncovers the secrets of the coastal towns and villages of the West Coast situated between Rocher Pan and Papendorp.

Mystery Rally 2016 - Gansbaai
Team Land Rover AFRICA returns from an incredible weekend of adventure camping and 4x4 exploring in the breathtaking Overberg region. The Mystery Rally 2016 saw 25+ vehicles from all shapes and brands congregate at 1st Alignment Centre in Brackenfell, Western Cape where they were handed a set of clues and coordinates to complete a series of driving and general knowledge challenges. Strandskloof Karavaan Park proved the ideal setting with great camping facilities and an awesome 4x4 course - with lots of mud and sand - for entrants to have a play in. Thanks to all the new and old faces were got to meet with and a massive thanks to Fraser Mackintosh and his team for putting up a wonderful spectacle. Also, big shout out to his sponsors.
Yzerfontein Club 4x4 Day
Footage from the 4x4 day organized by Yzerfontein Club every year on the 27th December. The day is made possible by Swartbergsvlei Farm (
The day consists of a beginners technical course followed by some fun in the sand pit. You then move onto a more technical course near the wind turbines. Finally you do a time trial event where the passenger must assemble a set of bolts while the driver navigates a bumpy course at high speed.
I can highly recommend it. As far as I know it is organized by Yzerfontein Club every year. I cannot remember the guide and his sons name - they were superb hosts - please let me know in the comments.
