This is a karoo veld campsite - situated on the farm Stinkfontein. There is no amenities and campers must be self supportive. This is a break away from anything and everything and a off-road camper is needed. (high clearance and 4x4 vehicle only) This is to just relax and have fun. You can do walking in the veld - do mountain biking and a circular 4x4 route for the not so hard 4x4'ers.
At night, the stars come out and with no lights in the area, it is a showcase and just sitting around a fire brings you back to nature as it should be.
The campsite is for nature lover - specifically for Karoo lovers as there is not much to do. this is a "leave only tracks behind" campsite with no facilities at all. water can be filled up at the entrance where there is a windmill with water stored in tanks.
The Tankwa Padstal is 35 Km away if you need to have a bit of socializing. Touws River town is 32 Km away if you run out of proviant.
Types of accommodation:
Very rustic camping - no facilities and a "leave only tracs" behind. Groups are allowed.
