Kamgab

Kamgab is a riverside campsite on the Namakwa 4x4 Eco Trail, situated along the Orange River downstream from Goodhouse village in the Northern Cape. It is one of several official campsites included in the trail's booking package between Pella and Vioolsdrift.

Reaching Kamgab is considered one of the most technically demanding sections of the entire trail. The approach winds through a narrow canyon with tight turns, massive boulders, and rugged cliffs — a route that can take at least 1.

5 hours to negotiate and is strictly suited to 4x4 vehicles. Despite the challenge, the reward is a wild, peaceful setting directly on the Orange River, where fishing is possible and the atmosphere is notably remote.

The campsite is widely regarded as one of the most memorable stops on the trail.
