Karoo National Park: The Pienaars Pass 4x4 eco-trail has been re-opened!

South African National Parks (SANParks) has announced that the Pienaars Pass 4x4 eco-trail in the Karoo National Park has been re-opened after the completion of necessary maintenance. The 6km eco-trail, which was closed since the heavy rains in late 2020, takes visitors to the middle plateau of the National Park. A full 4x4 vehicle with low range is needed to complete the trail. It is not recommended for beginners.

The Pienaars Pass 4x4 eco-trail, which was the first of its kind established in SANParks, is one of four 4x4 trails in the Karoo National Park. The eco-trail is accessible after checking in at the National Park's reception and paying a R318.50 per vehicle fee.
