At Offroad Routes and Tours, we do guided self-drive trips to interesting places in Southern Africa that have remained preserved as close to the original natural beauty. A 4-wheel drive vehicle rigged for camping is essential to reach some of the most beautiful spots. We travel for the pure joy of it and few things beat the sense of freedom when exploring places where only some have dared to ventu

re. Wild camping is part and parcel of how we travel, but for variety, we might stay in a guest house now and then.

The Richtersveld receives less than 50 millimeters of rain most years.

This arid region is known for its sparse landscape. But every now and then, after many years without rainfall, it is rewarded with sights like these—a truly once-in-a-blue-moon experience.

One of the best parts of overlanding through Zambia is the abundance of fresh, seasonal produce available in every village.

In July last year, the roadside stalls were filled with red onions, juicy watermelons, sweet bananas, ripe tomatoes, sweet potatoes, and crisp cabbage—locally grown and packed with flavor.

We quickly became regular customers, stocking up along the way and enjoying not just the fresh produce but also the warm hospitality of the vendors. These vibrant roadside markets add so much character to the journey!

Have you ever picked up fresh produce on your travels? What was your best find?

The new bridge over the Chobe River is an engineering masterpiece, making the journey to Zambia far easier than before.

What once took hours is now a seamless crossing. When the river is in full flood, the view from the bridge must be truly breathtaking.

This old bull at Elephant Sands waited patiently for hours at the waterhole.

It made me wonder—are man-made waterholes truly helping wildlife, or are we altering natural behavior in ways we don’t fully understand? While they provide a great experience for visitors, what are the long-term effects?

What do you think?

Hel se Pad Pass, a historic route dating back to 1880, offers adventurers a unique journey through the rugged landscape near Vanrhynsdorp. Spanning just 6.6 kilometers, this pass may seem short, but its twists and turns, combined with its rich history, make it a compelling destination for those seeking a memorable driving experience.

Initially designed by Mr. T.W. Bain and subsequently realigned over the years, Hel se Pad Pass showcases the ingenuity of its creators. Its gentle gradients defy the challenge of navigating its twists and turns, while the drive offers a thrilling adventure for drivers.

With an altitude variance of 480 meters and an average gradient of 1:14, Hel se Pad Pass presents both scenic beauty and technical difficulty. While a 4x4 vehicle isn't essential, a vehicle with good ground clearance is recommended to navigate the terrain safely.

Exploring Hel se Pad Pass isn't just about the drive — it's also about the journey back to civilisation once you've reached the bottom. This adds an extra layer of excitement to the experience, making it a true adventure for enthusiasts of gravel roads and scenic routes alike.

Although driving the pass in descending mode is recommended, we have always tackled it the other way around.
