Old Mill Drift Mountain Pass 4x4 Route
Eastern Free State (Old Mill Drift to Rebellie, Bokpoort and Clarens) · Free State 4x4 route
The longest of the routes run from Old Mill Drift. It climbs over the mountain from the farm to Rebellie, continues past Bokpoort to the R712, and returns via the R711 turn before Clarens, about 45 km in all; you can also turn back and descend the mountain to the farm. The farm rates the terrain as extreme. There are no GPX files, so ask the farm for directions before setting out.
