A community-run campsite in the dry riverbed of the Molopo gorge, next to the Riemvasmaak hot springs, reached by about 4 km of gravel from the village. The camp is about 57 km of gravel from Kakamas. There are no taps or electricity, so bring all drinking water (around 4 litres per person per day), firewood and food. One warm pool sits beside the camp and a shadier second pool is a short walk down the gorge; summer temperatures are extreme.
