Sun Or Snow, It's Time To Go

The Sani Pass is a bucket-list trip for many travellers in South Africa. The famous pass lies in the no-man's-land between South Africa and Lesotho, close to the KwaZulu-Natal town of Himeville. The view from the top of the pass never gets old. Nor does the feeling of accomplishment as you look at the gravel road snaking its way up the valley below – the same uneven, rocky road you’ve just conquered. Protea 4x4 Adventures has been offering tours to Sani Pass for almost 10 years, and we believe that one has to visit it in summer and winter to truly experience the area. The contrast is unbelievable: the clear blue summer skies, lush grasslands and colourful blooming wildflowers often make way for a white blanket of snow in winter (although we missed the snow this time).

[ TRAVEL ] ISUZU MU-X MOZAMBIQUE ADVENTUREThe novelist Douglas Adams famously said: “I love deadlines. I love the whooshing noise they make as they go by.” Unfortunately, I do not have the luxury of missing a dead… I know our readers are anxiously awaiting each new edition of Caravan & Outdoor Life. But when Isuzu invites you on a Mozambique Adventure with the new mu-X, you have to throw caution into the wind and just go for it, no matter how close to deadline it is! Even though we wouldn’t be towing, with the chance to cross the border, stay in a ve-star resort, and go exploring the surrounds including some sand track driving in the Maputo Special Reserve, I packed my bags, grabbed my wife, and off we went…

Next Generation Of Off-Roaders

It's 2019 and the off-road caravan has come of age! Now you can experience the bush in levels of luxury previously not widely found in South Africa, and relax knowing that your accommodation has the capability and durability of providing all the comforts of home... but in the most exciting of places. The new Okapi,manufactured by Nayela and hopefully to enter full production soon, is typical of this new generation of “glamping“ off-roaders.

How To Get Solar Power For My Caravan

I want to update the Hercules 20 inverter in my caravan to a full sine wave inverter using 2 x 12 V batteries and solar charging panels. I am not sure how to mount the solar panels on top of the caravan, or on top of my single cab bakkie canopy (which I tow with).
