W@nted Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 Olifantsnek is about 8 km outside Rustenburg, on the R24 towards Magaliesburg...

Grondpad Posted November 22, 2011 Author Posted November 22, 2011 Olifantsnek is about 8 km outside Rustenburg, on the R24 towards Magaliesburg... Thnaks for the feedback. Can you maybe give me some directions if I go over Breedtneks from the Hekpoort side?
HowellingWulf Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 Just down the road from Olifantskop, on the way to Olifantsbors...... If you get to Olifantshol you've missed the turn-off.
DJR Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 If you get to Olifantshol you've missed the turn-off.Thanks RB, you have the true hubbers' spirit!
W@nted Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 Thnaks for the feedback. Can you maybe give me some directions if I go over Breedtneks from the Hekpoort side?I'll find out from the locals, not exactly sure from Breedtnek
Mojoman Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 From Breedts Nek-If you go over the mountain, make a left at the tar road T junction (right takes you toward Buffelspoort), Follow this road till you get to another T juntion, make a left and you are now heading towards Rustenburg and the R24. At the next T junction turn left onto the R24, travel apporx 3km and you will crest the hill that overlooks Olifantsnek dam.
Grondpad Posted November 22, 2011 Author Posted November 22, 2011 Great info! Thanks Mojoman Is this section tar or gravel? From Breedts Nek-If you go over the mountain, make a left at the tar road T junction (right takes you toward Buffelspoort), Follow this road till you get to another T juntion, make a left and you are now heading towards Rustenburg and the R24. At the next T junction turn left onto the R24, travel apporx 3km and you will crest the hill that overlooks Olifantsnek dam.
Mojoman Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 Once you leave the dirt road/mountain pass its all tar, there are shoulders for riding (tar and dirt) and the road is pretty quiet, the only dodgy piece would be the R24 heading out of Rustenburg, lots of trucks and no soft shoulder to ride on really.
