About De Rust

De Rust, in the Klein Karoo along the N12, is your last decent stop before tackling Meiringspoort, the old sandstone pass that winds through to Klaarstroom. Half an hour from Oudtshoorn, it's an easy local run for wine farms and hot springs at Calitzdorp, but it also pulls in road-trippers from as far as Lamberts Bay and Orania. Charge your EV in Oudtshoorn or George first, there's not much on offer here. Don't skip the waterfall about ten kays into the pass.
