Has anyone stayed at Wagon Wheel Caravan Park in Beaufort West? I don't want to stay at Karoo National Park because there are monkeys and baboons in the campsite and i had enough of that at Augrabies! I'd love to hear about Wagon Wheel Caravan Park or any other decent caravan park in the Beaufort West area.

Kan ook miskien Steenbokkie oorweeg?

I saw a really bad review from someone who stayed there for a month, so im not sure about Steenbokkie. Theyre not that cheap either.

Wagon Wheel is'n oorslaap plek reg langs die hoofpad. Daar is baie pad geraas regdeur die nag
Ons het nog nooit moeilikheid met ape of bobbejane by KNP gehad nie.
Steenbokkie is baie oulik, maar die muskiete het ons weggedra in Desember

Thanks Dave. I phoned KNP yesterday and the receptionist said the monkeys and baboons dont really come into the camp but then added that you must keep all yoir stuff out of sight. It was the same at Augrabies where I spent 4 nights in August and I had to put the pop top down every morning and up again at night which is a hassle. All the other people with pop top caravans did the same. And as I'm on my own that means asking someone to help twice a day which I dont like to do.

Hi
Het al hande vol kere by karoo national geoornag, gekamp oor naweke en het (maybe fortunate) nog nooit monkeys and baboons daar gekry nie. Wagon wheel is nie baie lekker nie. Is n oornag plek, was eenkeer daar toe karoo n.p. vol geboek was. Volgnde keer as karoo vol is ry ek verder.

Steen bokkie is stukke beter as wagon wheel

We had bad experience with scorpions at WW.......lots of them , even at night. Wear your leather boots when you visit the loo!!

Ons staan die jaar ook oor by Wagon Wheel.

Ok .... jys gewaarsku
Al van hulle wat uitsonderlik lekker was verlede desember was ete.... n pick en choose en hierdie dik oom het ve sy geldkie geEET

Wat is so "bad" daar ?

Have stayed at Karoo NP many times over the years and can never recall having baboon or monkey problems. Perhaps it is a recent or "seasonal" development.
Augrabies, on the other hand, gets raided daily if not by baboons then monkeys. It's like each troop takes its turn!!

Wagonwheel isbasically a nice stopover in my opinion, not much... we overnight there and eat at the restaurant when passing by, thats basically it..

I am also a regular visitor to Karoo National Park and have never seen monkeys or baboons in the camping area.  This is definately not a problem in this park.

Sal ook eerder Steenbokkie aanbeveel

Dis moeilik om te sê presies. Met "n lang trein" is die draaie biekie kort. Eks nie n beaufort fan nie, dus lyk die kamp ve my soos die area rondom die hoofweg op pad soontoe.... Vaal. Pad geraas, kamp is so te sê langs die pad. Kos was baie lekker... buffet ete. Koue bier in kroeg BAIE lekker.
Jy gaan mos net daar oorstaan Wilsur, so dan kan dit maar ok wees. Net nie my cup of tea nie. Karoo nas. inteenstelling het n vriendelike atmosfeer. Ek onthou die eerste keer toe ek9 daar oorstaan stop ons net, haak nie eers af nie. Sit net jockie uit om gewig van haak af te haal . Sit krag aan om koffie te maak. Next moment vlieg die jan frederick (cape robin) in , kyk rond en gaan sit buite voor die deur en wag. Naderhand is hy en sy maters ediment. Gaan haal toe n stukkie kaas en hou ve hulle, eet uit my hand. Verlede jaar selfde storie.

We spent 4 nights at Karoo National Park early last month and never saw a monkey or baboon. It was a pleasure. Augrabies is bad news. Were over run by them.

Ons het ons by twee geleenthede lelik misgis met kontrakwerkers by Wagon Wheels. Soveel so dat die mans en dames beurte moes maak om die dames ablusie te gebruik aangesien die mans ablusie heeltemal oorvol was van die konrakwerkers wat in tente gewoon het.

Gee my enige dag eerder die Nasionale Park. Hulle warmwaterstelsel is nou wel nie watwonders nie, maar jy hoef ten minste nie in 'n ellelange tou te staan nie.
