W/Cape Hilux Club Weekend Outing - Die Gatjie 17 - 19 June

Post by Rolbos »

:yahoo: All Members of the Western Cape Hilux4x4 Club are invited to a Weekend outing to "Die Gatjie" near Citrusdal on the Weekend of 17 - 19 June 2011.
Those interested for a lekker Camping weekend and two 4x4 trails for the weekend should contact me ASAP. We can only take 12 vehicles so bookings will be accepted on a " first come first serve " basis. Die Gatjie is located near the Town of Citrusdal in the beautiful Cederberg Mountain area and consists of a nice Lapa with ablutions facilities with hot and cold water. We plan to do the mountain trail on Saturday and the river trail, if possible, on Sunday morning. The roads are kept clean with bushes cut and road attended to on a regular basis so vehicle damage is very limited. The trail would be rated between a 2-3 and some places a 4. I have done the trail two weeks ago and can vouch for a very enjoyable outing with the owner accompanying us with a wealth of infomation being shared with all in the group via 29Meg Radios . I can strongly recommend the trail and would like to see some old friends and newbies over the weekend. Please contact me ASAP on my email -louisb@bantamtrailers.co.za for a full program and formal invite . Looking forward to hear from the Hiluxe'rs soon. Regards. Louis Rolbos

Ek sien dit is dieselfde naweek as die Lions 4x4 dag in Vredendal en die 16de is 'n Vakansiedag
Die kan dus 'n lekker kamp naweek wees as jy die Vrydag ook afvat.

Die ouens wat hou van extreme 4x4 en 'n challenge kan loer by

Jis Niel, daar is nie veel info oor die roete nie, ek het gelees (op verskeie sites) die berg roete neem so bietjie meer as 'n uur en dit kos R100 per voertuig (dis seker 'n uur op en dan 'n uur af). Ek beplan om in Maart daar te gaan kamp en die roete te doen. Ek sal terugvoering gee. Ek beplan om die 1ste of 2de naweek te gaan.
