Kickoff from Khamkirri to Augrabies & Riemvasmaak - (click to open)Our adventure begins bright and early at 8 AM at Khamkirri Resort, just outside Kakamas. After a warm meet & greet and a quick safety briefing, we fire up our 4x4s and hit the rugged trails—leaving our campervans and tents behind for the day.
Our first stop? Riemvasmaak, where we take on dusty tracks leading to breathtaking desert landscapes and the legendary hot springs, a true oasis in the arid terrain.

A highlight of the day includes a visit to Koppies Kraal Camel Milking Farm, where we enjoy an insightful talk about the health benefits of camel milk—particularly its positive impact on children with Down syndrome.
