Follow this road for 22km, and you will find the Directions Growcery Camp to be very easy.

We recommend that if you deflate your tires - you will experience a sifter drive on this road. Forget about the GPS. Follow this road and follow the Road signs. When your journey feels long, please continue a little further, and you will discover the Directions Growcery Camp to be accurate.

If you enter South Africa from Namibia, the turnoff will be 30 meters outside the SA border on your right-hand side. Follow the same instructions above, and you will find the Directions Growecery Camp to be accurate. It is a scenic drive, and you will go over a mountain pass with spectacular views.

The first sign is the road sign Kotzehoop. Follow this signpost, and you are on the correct and only road south of the Orange River. It is a mere 22km from where you see the Kotzehoop signpost to the Directions Growcery Camp. It is a gravel road, and we advise that you deflate your tires. In General, 1,5 front and 1,8 at the back tires should do the trick. This helps with corrugation and, in general, driving on gravel roads. It is a scenic road through farms and local communities, so please stay at 60 km/h to be on the safe side.
