Re: Tamboti Toyota Firearms festival: 25 August 2012
DIRECTIONS TO KNAPSKOOT SKIETBAAN:
The Knapskoot Skietbaan is situated on the farm "Lemetfort 303". On Garmin GPS software, it is indicated as "Lemetford shooting range"., and the coordinates given is actually the turnoff at the tar road.
From Gauteng:
Travel north on the N1, past Warmbad, (Bela Bela).
At the Kranskop toll gate, exit at left, and proceed to Nylstroom (Modimolle).
Go straight through Nylstroom, and proceed towards Vaalwater for about 60 km.
When leaving Vaalwater, turn right at the clearly marked signpost: "Lephalale"
After 88 km, you reach a T junction: Thabazimbi left, Lephalale right.
Turn right.
At the roadworks turn left onto the detour, and follow this dirt road up to the intersection with Nelson Mandela road.
Turn left into Nelson Mandela road.
Travel through four sets of traffic lights, in the direction of the Matimba Power station, visible in the west.
After about 14 km, turn left at the three way stop, on the Steenbokpan road.
Follow this road for 25 km past the Medupi construction site.
After 25 km note the signposts: "Knapskoot skietbaan 5 km" and "Lemetfort 303". Left and right of the tar road.
Turn right, through the gate, and follow the sand road.
Proceed for 5 kms straight ahead. You will cross 3 cattle grids. At the farmstead, the track to the range goes left, and you will reach the range 600 metres further.
The coordinates for the shooting range are: S 23*39.705 : E 027*29.790.

Note: there be roadworks between Nylstroom/Modimolle and Vaalwater as well. Not the longest delays but can add up to an hour to your journey.

Re: Tamboti Toyota Firearms festival: 25 August 2012
Hi There,
Does anybody know if the campsite at the Knapskoot Skietbaan/range is open late on Friday night for late arrivals from Jhb?
It seems a bit to far to only start driving very early on Sat morning?
Regards

Should not be a problem. The gravel road for the last 5K's or so is a bit sandy, and low vehicles might have a problem.
Last year we arrived at about 8Pm. This year we plan on leaving a LOT earlier from Brits.
