Thanks, Dani

I have compiled a list of 263 mountain passes in South Africa.

I have the following information on each one:

Name of Pass:
Co-ordinates:
Province:
Closest Town:

I have posted below, the names of the passes by Province. Should you need any of the above info on any of the passes, please let me know.

If you can add any more passes please do so and add as much info on the pass as you can. The name and where the pass is, is the most important. Co-ordinates is the easiest. I will then add the "new" passes to the Provincial Lists below.

Thank you !!!

Great project Sharkie! cheers

Thanks,

I hope that members will add new passes to the list, and provide more and more useful information on the passes already listed.
This way we can grow the list as a club, and make it available to who-ever in the club wants it.

I do not think that there is such a list out there, I have searched everywhere, but cannot find a comprehensive list. I find bits and bits, and then add to my own list. That is how I got to these.

So I encourage all members to please add as much information as they can to this thread, and you can also indicate which of the passes you have ridden before.

And pictures are ALWAYS welcome !!!

Thanks !!!
