Two campsites on a private Karoo reserve about 25 km from Touws River. De Wet's Rus is the larger group site, for up to 20 vehicles, with a cold-water kitchen, toilets and showers in two blocks and a splash pool filled from mid-September to mid-April. Echo Valley is a small private site for up to five vehicles near the Seattle 4x4 trail; passenger cars cannot reach it. Bring your own lighting and fuel up first, as the nearest filling station is in Touws River.
