Hi Jaco, Cant find Sandrivier on my map but can see Sanddrif. The other Rivier is Dwarsrivier. Let us say it is Sanddrif.. To Wuprthal is about 40kms, this will take about 2 hours as you must stop at the "pools" just beyond eselbank. As you leave the village you cross a cement bridge, just after this the road turns very sharply left, on this corner is a turn off to the right. Take it and the pools are about 300m along this road. Wuperthal via Kouberg pas, Biedouw Valley, Hoek se Berg Pass, Engelsman se graf (Turn left), Oupoort, Pakhuis pass to Clanwilliam is about 80kms and will take an hour. Clanwilliam to Sanddrif via Algeria and Uitkyk pass is about 65kms and will take another hour or so. So to be very rustig I would do the trip in a day. I have very detailed maps if you want to pop by my house and look at them. Geoff.

Thanks Geoff for the information - Yes it is Sanddrif!.

Gaan kyk ook in die Ou Forum na my "Wuppertal in een dag" report. Daar is ook ander reporte oor daardie stukkie pad. Die roete wat julle wil ry klink baie lekker. Die jeeptrack tussen Dwarsrivier en Wuppertal is in elk geval 'n "must-do" vir enige GS ryer. Maak seker julle het als wat nodig is vir papwiele. Daar is nie selfoonsein nie. En, wanneer julle by Eselsbank na die waterval afdraai, le^ daar 'n keuse van drie paaie voor jou! Vat die heel regterkantste pad. ":)"

Hey Danie - what about copying the old trip report into the new trip reports section? It is certainly one of the gems I would like to scavenge onto the bright side... ;-) Website Administrator
