IMPORTANT: You MUST notify Mario and get a permit before climbing at Nardouw, every time!
There is a private permit system in place separate from the pakhuis pass/cederberg permit. You MUST check in with Mario by WhatsApp (+27 63 306 7812) and stop by the farm house to pay the day use. (Day: R50, Week: R300, Month: R1000.)
Card or Cash accepted, and deals available for guests at Nardouw camping/accomodations.
You can contact Michael Plesser (@v10issoft on IG) with climbing or topo questions.
Driving:
1) Either take the Elizabethsfontein dirt road from near travellers rest past the sassies, then past taj mahal, until Nardouw appears on the right. (~35 min. from the farm stall, dirt roads)
2) Alternatively, head back over the pass and just before Clanwilliam take the road north to Klawer. A few minutes after the pavement ends, turn right up the Nardouwberg valley and Nardouw will be on the left. (~40 min. from the farmstall, mostly paved)
Parking/approach:
Differs by area, consult the map or ask Mario.
All parking is on top of the cliff and requires passing the farm house. Do NOT park by the lower/main road.
There are fence boundaries that must be respected, do NOT enter land if you do not know who owns it. In the future the neighbors may be amenable to opening access, but NOT if climbers betray their trust. Let Mario negotiate since he knows them, and don't blow it for everyone by "just having a look"!
Some boulders are near the Nardouw cabin, respect the privacy of the guests! These boulders in particular you must ask permission from Mario to access.
Always check for rock art before cleaning anything, there is lots on the property!
