Any experiences, warnings, recommendations?
We have to maak some kinda...

The ONLY downside I can think of for Tzenzi is the close proximity of the day picnic area.
IF you are there during the picnic site open hours, it can get a little distracting.
However, overall, I...

Shorter trips less frequently is step one.
I think that we are all (normal income folk) considering all options.
As assisted by the good folk on this forum very recently regarding possibly selling...

Thank you so much for the update.
One of our favorite places but have not been there for many years.

You are very welcome here and thank you for your interest in our beautiful country and continent (even if defective in many ways!).

I have a special love for Swiss folk having worked for Swiss...

From experience, I will not touch any kind of inflating mattress.>:D

I agree Croc Bridge.
Not as commercial as Berg & Dal - easier access to main and other routes northwards where you will find less commercialized satellite campsites.
Berg and Dal has a lot more...

Nee Rainier, hy is nie :)
Hy volg net die pad van verandering in oudferdom.
Ja, Henk, die pille, en die maande wat ewe meer vinnig verby trek. Die jare begin nou ook so maak. Dit is reeds amper...

Stanley all the way. Take the price pain ONCE and it will last almost forever, most likely for your lifetime anyway.
Mine is used every day (1.7 L I think) and has been for ?????? years.
When after...

You just cannot believe how jealous I am.

We stayed at Bateleur many years back with SWAMBO's late Mom and Dad (We took them there for four nights after having them at our timeshare cottage at...

The ADT technician did it but he told me that the normal charger on the system would be fine. As far as I know he left the original still OK small battery connected as well.
Re: Electric fence -...

I have used an old battery from the Isuzu as an add-on to the standard small battery on my homes alarm system - it was near end of life then. Still going strong and my alarm system which includes the...

Interesting, but then those old incandescent lights wasted just so much power in heat.
The LED's a bit less.

I was just surprised and wondered about it.
Thank you all for the feedback on this -...

I suspected as much, I was just surprised, I thought it needed natural outdoor light to function at all.
Makes me think though, would it be worth putting the panel inside where lights are on anyway...

I just noticed something interesting by chance.
I have my solar panel (90W) in an aluminum frame lying facing up on my worktable in my little workshop waiting to be put out in the sun when we get...

I can only assume (maybe incorrectly) that your friend did not renew the license annually and allowed it to expire.
That generates monthly penalties and adds to the ultimate (normal) renewal fee....

Just take note that it is an old thread .....

I have also have made this "mistake before.
However, nothing wrong with reviving an old thread - they tend to get lost in time and frequently still...

Apologies:-[, I missed that.

"Eish !";D
I am really enjoying the videos, tanks for those.
I subscribe to your channel on utube and also appreciate the updates re orange river etc.

At THAT time the permits were free - you just needed to navigate the red tape to get them - all possible online.
The fishing permits I think, may have a cost attached ? (I am not a fishing guy).
...

I simply must comment here.

We bought our NL Weekenderr with (as far as I am aware, anyway) the Danfoss set up.
That was somewhere around 2009 or 2010 "ish". Was used for "normal" camping. then:...

All you good folk out there ...
I sincerely apologize. :(:-[
However, I need to opt out of this particular initiative started by myself.

My dear SWAMBO is experiencing increasing physical...

Waiting for more info.
Then I suggest a "list" of no more than 2 venues from the above list for serious consideration.
Then facts re costs and facilities and (Oh yes, 4x4 off-road related info.)...

EISH !!
You should have told me, maybe we would have joined you there.
It is a great place.
What did you folk think of it ?

I see that access to Eston 4x4 camping is no power at all and the access to the campsite is not OK for my caravan, so I would be "out".
However that does not mean that others could not take...

Are there camping facilities ? It would seem so from your response.
Space (No. of sites)?
Is the road from the tar to the campsite doable with an on road small caravan ?
I did see a video on...

Any update after the flooding ??
A couple of questions:
Camping ?
Condition of road to the campsite and of the tracks following the flooding ?
Being considered as a POSSIBLE venue for the Aug....

What are the feelings about camping with solar only? (Thinking Eston 4x4 ??)
Does this option rule out anyone who would otherwise attend ?

This was the info. at the time. (Oct. 2016)

You need to get permits for driving within 1 000 m of the coastline. There is presently no
cost involved and they can be arranged online. You will need...

A great park indeed, I rank the maintenance , staff, facilities etc. on a par, if not better, than Kruger.
We have only ever camped there ( a number of times over many years) - Never been...

Added, thanks.

Post #1 updated.
Being a "long" weekend (?), maybe we should be making a decision in the near future.

One of our favorite places in times past.
That drive up the mountain is most definitely worth doing.
As said, be wary of oncoming vehicles - compromise is needed.
Do you self a favour and visit...

Driving and fishing permits / licenses have been required all along the Wild Coast for some many years - nothing new here.
You need to keep away from the coast if I remember correctly, by 1 KM if...

Just for info.
I still have a few stickers (larger size) available for those prepared to collect from my home in Pinetown.

I also have a very few caps - reserved for those attending the mini...
