We traversed this pass from Callitzdorp to Van Wyksdorp and is described in Mountain Passes of South Africa as follows"This is not a pass to be trifled with and although it can be driven in a normal car, a high clearance vehicle would be better. It is also a long pass at 14 km and contains some fairly rough sections. There are a total of 69 bends, corners and curves which include 6 hairpins and many other bends with a turning radius in excess of 90 degrees. It's a road for the less hurried traveller and offers wonderful views on both the northern and southern sides with valleys and ridges bedecked in fynbos and in winter you'll be treated to the sight of the bright orange flowers of hundreds of thousands of flowering aloes." The total road is over 50kms with a second lesser known pass before your reach your destination Assegaaibosch Pass This road is bumpy, dusty and quite a challenge ubtil you reach Rooiberg Lodge area

We had an amazing experience. Hosts were friendly and made us laugh, wine was good and I loved the variety/change of the Portuguese wines mixed in! They do an extensive wine and olive tasting and the olives with a bite are to die for. We bought a bunch of each and will go back. Highly recommend a stop if you are anywhere close by to this lovely family run place!

Oude Postkantoor is a Gallery and Coffee shop situated on the scenic Groenfontein road 14,5Km from Calitzdorp. Serving light lunches, coffee, cake and soft drinks, we are a welcome stop at the foot of the Swartberg, a stones throw away from the Retreat at Groenfontein.

Had a lovely meander around this little gallery as well as a coffee and chat with Roger who was very hospitable. He’s an extremely talented artist with very emotive photographs being exhibited. Thanks Roger! We hope to be back again.
