This picturesque camping area is a protected refuge for the rare bontebok, a South African antelope recognizable for its red coat and white face.

Poor map given at Reception, rushed instructions with no que! Admitted 1330 admission but still only saw a few Bontebok! Totally over priced and very disappointed. Need to up your ideas greatlyFull review by Christine G

We are planning to visit the park on the day after Christmas, are you open then. How much does it cost for car with 2 seniors and two adults. Is the road ok to drive on and how far to you have to drive to see animals.
A:
Sorry don't know if open, you'd have to ask park for entrance fee, i suggest you buy a "Wild Card" it pays for itself after just a few visits to a couple of parks.
Do we need a car to get there? We plan to take the intercape bus from cape town to swellendam which would drop us off at the Groentemark in Voortrekker street. It will be only two of us. Is is safe enough to hike? Is there perhaps a group that walks often in the area? We hope to travel on the 31st July for a few days. Thanks!
A:
Yes you need a car but I believe there are taxis. Definitely too far to walk -and inside the parkek the same!
