Tankwa Karoo National Park allows camping at designated spots for campers who are fully self-sufficient, on a leave-only-your-footprints basis. Each site is booked for the exclusive use of one party of up to 15 people. Park reception is at Roodewerf, and the park's cottages look out towards the Roggeveld escarpment. The park also has 4x4 tracks, including the Leeuberg 4x4 Eco-trail and the Watervlei 4x4 Route.
