March-2018: NWR advised this trail is closed until further notice. (Mar-2018) The Naukluft 4x4 trail is an unguided, overnight and unique 4x4 trail on tracks built by early pioneers, who farmed this area many years ago. The trail is approximately 73 km long and there is an overnight stop 30 km from Naukluft on the plateau at Tjeriktik, on narrow, rocky tracks on mountainous terrain. The trail is accessible by most 4 x 4 vehicles that have standard track width. Sand or wide, soft-walled tyres are not recommended because of the many sharp stones. This route is not designed to test your vehicle, but rather to test your driving ability. The Naukluft camp is in the mountains on the banks of the Naukluft River. It is small and exclusive. Because there are only 4 campsites (no chalets) a reservation is essential. The Tjeriktik Camp is simpler, four stone-walled, A-framed shelters with built-in bunks to sleep on. The four shelters can each accommodate four people, with a maximum of 16 people and four vehicles per group. Visitors may use their own tents if they prefer, and must be self-sufficient as regards camping equipment. There are toilets, a shower, an outdoor fire place, tables, benches and water is available at the hand-pump.(Information supplied by DriveOut Magazine).
