Bedrogfontein 4x4 Trail - Eastern Cape in a Nutshell!

If you want to see South Africa without tourists and crowds, you have to get off the beaten track. The Bedrogfontein 4x4 trail in the Addo Elephant National Park takes you places most people don't get to see.

    Beautiful. Addo is a jewel of a park. I had a wonderful time there when I visited, while living in Durban many years ago. The drive from Durban to Cape Town is gorgeous and addo is a must stop along the way imho. And Matt thanks foe all the .22 videos. Oddly my home state in the USA has the same restrictions on air gun caliber as in SA so I’m always glad to see people shooting the latest stuff in the smaller calibers.

    I drove this in 2016 in my Troopy and saw noone else, even in the campsite. It was a very memorable experience. The ruins of the farm half way up the mountain made me think what it would have been like to live in such a remote place before cars or good roads!

    Hi Matt- been watching many of your videos, great content. We are about to embark on a combo of Namakwa Eco Trail, Richtersveld NP, and southern Namibia. Would you recommend I invest in Tracks4Africa maps on my Garmin, or rather go for Gaia GPS on my mobile? I have the free version of Gaia and it seems really useful compared to just having a separate map on the Garmin. Your thoughts?

    Beautiful scenery, visited Addo in 2019. May I ask, as I grew up on a farm in the Eastern Cape, why are windmills now referred to as ‘wind pumps’? It’s a direct translation from Afrikaans. I’ve lived in Australia for 46 years, so enjoyed this

    Windmills and wind pumps are two different things - Wind mills mill and wind pumps pump😁 So these are all wind pumps. They pump water from boreholes.
