Koningskop 4 x 4 Trail Koningskop Camp Site & 4x4 Trails
are to be found off the N7 on your way to Citrusdal from Cape Town

The camp site and 4x4 trails are situated on the farm Wilgerbosdrif between the Olifantsrivier mountains, 27km from Citrusdal and 17km from the N7. The farm belongs to the Spreeth Family and has been in their family for four generations. The main farming activities are citrus and rooibos tea.

Come and enjoy a peaceful weekend away from hustle and bustle of the city.

Bring your 4x4 and let it do what it was designed to, on our 4x4 trails. There is one for the adventours and one for the "not so brave", both have beautiful scenic views of the Swartland. The camp site offers place for tents and caravans, where you can relax on the lawns and take in the peaceful surroundings. Take a hike and discover the original bushman’s drawings on the farm, while getting back to nature.
