Berakah 4×4 Trails, Parys
In this area of unspoiled beauty surrounding the Vredefort Dome World Heritage Site, you’ll find 15km of marked 4×4 trail, which twists and turns through open savannah, bushveld, riverbeds, mud, water, over hill climbs and scenic mountains.
Although there are bypass routes for the main obstacles, low-range and diff-locks are a must, as is a trusty co-pilot to negotiate the many pole crossings. Don’t forget to pack some lunch, as there are braai and picnic spots along the way providing a perfect rest opportunity.
The way there: From Parys, take the R53 to Potchefstroom. Follow the Berakah signs after crossing the Vaal River.
Accommodation: All options are self-catering with a choice between chalets costing from R180 a person sharing a night and camping for R45 a person a night.
