Weekend Dispatch

Short notes from recent scouting runs across the Cape, KwaZulu-Natal, and the Free State — what worked, what didn't, and where we're heading next.

Mar 14

Garden Route fuel stop check

Re-ran the Knysna to Plettenberg Bay stretch to verify the new petrol station hours near the N2 turn-off. Diesel pumps open until 22:00, card only after 18:00.

Mar 02

Drakensberg farm stay visit

Spent two nights at a working farm near Cathedral Peak. The self-catering cottages are basic but spotless, and the evening stargazing deck is worth the drive alone.

Feb 21

Western Cape harbour market

Checked the Saturday seafood market at a small fishing village near Gansbaai. Arrive before 09:00 for the best catch — the snoek braai stand sells out by noon.

Route update: R62 detour

Roadworks between Barrydale and Ladismith add roughly 25 minutes to the drive. The gravel section is well-graded, but low-clearance vehicles should take the longer tar route.

Jan 28

Seasonal calendar draft

Compiled the autumn activity list for the Karoo — wildflower routes, stargazing evenings, and the first lambing season farm tours. Final dates to be confirmed next month.
