    Default 4x2 camping trails Western cape.

    Howdy all,

    Looking for some decent trails that I can take my 2015 Ford Ranger on that have decent camping spots as well, something thats maybe 2 days long just to get a feel for it. Any help would be appreciated.

    Consider the Cederberg as an option. Many nice campsites to consider.

    Here's a very basic route, goes past most camping spots/pubs in Cederberg

    https://maps.app.goo.gl/oMeWXZqnjSUeieBD8

    Tankwa Padstal
    Cederberg Oasis
    Sandrift
    Stadsaal Caves
    Cederberg Wines
    Cederberg Brewery
    Algeria(Cape Nature)
    Veldskoen Padstal Clanwilliam
    Enjo Farm
    Tankwa Halfway House

    All places you can Google to see what you like, stop and turn around wherever or stay over somewhere. Id suggest following that route to Cederberg Brewery if doing a day trip then straight to the N7 from there otherwise it will be very long.

    Try Anysberg nature reserve. Lots and lots of gravel and a few rocky areas, but definitely manageable in a 4x2. Awesome camp site, have been there a number of times.
