Mountain Pass Rooiberg Pass (Roodeberg)

ID: w128049 View large map

Located in South Africa :: Western Cape (Klein Karoo)  :: Calitzdorp
Category: Scenic Routes :: Mountain Pass

The Rooiberg Pass was built in 1928 and there appears to be scant information as to who the designer was. It joins the tiny village of van Wyksdorp with Calitzdorp over the Rooiberg Mountain. This is not a pass to be trifled with and it is often only negotiable in a 4WD vehicle depending on the condition of the road. It is also a long pass at 18 km with a level section in the middle. All these considered, it is one you simply have to drive once in your life. We gave this pass a Top 40 rating. (Source: Mountain Passes South Africa).
