MUST DO 4X4 ROUTES IN KNYSNA?

Post by Rusti »

Hi guys and girls..

We are going up to knysna in December and would like to know if there are any 4X4 routes that I shouldn't miss.. I haven't done much 4x4ing except 10 hours straight through the mountains from Clanwilliam to Tankwa last year. So we are looking for something a bit easier.. :thumbup:

Please let me know if you know of any awesome trails.. We are going to do the one through the forest... can't wait!

This forest drive is not bad, but its not anything close to 4x4... I did the whole thing in two wheel drive.

Its very nice relaxed educational drive, the Knysna forest has an amazing story well worth the drive I think.

There is a nice scenic pass you can do, its not 4x4 but well worth the views,
Its all gravel road, coming from knysa the first part is through the forest but after that comes the nice part...

Prince alfreds pass.
