Witkoppe All Trad climbing 7 routes in crag

Turn off the N3 just north of Harrismith and take the R772 to Verkykerkop. ie the Mt. Everest Resort road. Continue along the road for 48 km and through the village of Verkykerkop. Then travel a further 20 km and turn left onto a dirt road to Driebult and Wikoppe. Travel a few kilometres until the farm 'Nonpareil' is seen on the left. This is the home of Mr.Willemse. Map

Mr.Willemse is friendly towards climbers and will give you a key to get through the many gates on the way to the cliff, which is above a remote stock kraal. (Whilst the party of three were climbing the Willemse family came out in their private aeroplane to have a look at what was happening.) Visitors must phone before arrival to make arrangements to collect the key and get final directions through the farm. Phone (058) 6223467 . The road from the farmhouse to the crag is rough but can be negotiated by a normal sedan, however, a bakkie would be much better.
