Bakkrans co-ordinates, Richtersveld

[Bush Ranger]

Looking for Bakkrans co-ords, on the Namakwa Eko 4x4 trail. Might need to stealth camp there for one night on way back from Nam. Slept there 10 years ago on Richtersveld hike -memory bit rusted on how to get there? Thanks!

Hi.
Need info on how to book for Bak Krans? Permits etc?
Thanks!

Reviving this thread - I assume Bakkrans is considered wild camping with no booking and first come first serve?

Anyone have info on how it works for Koerdap? Booking at Lekkersing or can it be booked prior?

Bakkranse is part of the Namakwa 4x4 trail. You need a permit and booking. Here are their website:

Thanks, yes, I saw Bakkrans is part of the Namakwa 4x4 trail - I booked via them earlier today. They manage Bakkrans and Tierkloof, for future reference.
