Die Dam River Camp
Die Dam River Camp
Die Dam River Camp is a shady 4×4 bush camp situated on the banks of the Gamka River in the Klein Karoo, approximately 16 km from Calitzdorp.
Access requires a 4×4 vehicle with good ground clearance, and the drive through rugged terrain is considered part of the experience. The camp is part of the Matjiesvlei guest farm and is booked as a private retreat for one group at a time.
The camp sits alongside Die Dam, offering fishing for yellowfish, black bass, eel, and carp, as well as swimming and boating. Modern ablution facilities with flush toilets and hot water are provided.
From the camp, guests can tackle the Bojaankop 4×4 trail, a steep route that climbs to 540 metres above sea level and rewards with sweeping views across the Little Karoo. Walks and hikes on the farm are also available.
