On the Mutomunga Loop there is a little loop that gets you closer to the Klipvoor Dam. This is a good spot to park off and see water birds

Great sightings and beautifull photos Duke

Is there camping facilities and is the road caravan friendly , I would like to go there some time

Hi harrys

There are camping facilities. Road is very narrow in most places and might be tricky with caravan - don't recall see a caravan during the weekend we were there.
