In the heart of the nature reserve lies this drift. Hiking parking lot and start of the short hiking trail Sprokkelspoor are right next door.

A great place for a break. There aren't that many picnic spots. But the location and view are great

This is the old camp commandant's house, now covered with a glass "house" to prevent further decay.
