Nuweveld 4x4 Trail
Karoo National Park · Western Cape 4x4 route
A circular 4x4 route that branches west off the Potlekkertjie Loop in Karoo National Park and returns to the rest camp. The round trip via Embizweni Cottage is about 91 km, of which about 55 km is on 4x4 tracks, with no extra charge beyond park entry. Day visitors must start by 11:00 because the area is remote with very little cellphone reception. Gemsbok, mountain zebra, kudu and red hartebeest may be seen along the way.

Before you drive it
