DIRECTIONS

DRIVING FROM CAPE TOWN

Take the N2 (as if you were going to the airport). Keep going, past Somerset West and over Sir Lowry’s Pass. (Note the speed restrictions all the way - or you will receive some unwanted mail from the authorities.) About 110km’s from Cape Town, look out for a large sign on the left clearly indicating Greyton. Turn left here.

Drive inland through the mountains for about 30 kms.

Drive into the town, and at the 2nd stop street turn right. (Marker - On the left-hand corner is the Poshuis restaurant) 

Drive 4km. The road becomes a gravel road. At around 4km look for the "Blue Hippo" sign on the left.

Drive into the farm, following the farm road for a short distance. Drive slowly - looking out for a sharp turn to the right at the end of the road. Turn here, driving very carefully as the road is rocky and drops quite steeply.

After a few metres you'll see two wooden buildings - one on the left, and the other on the right. Park under the trees.

DRIVING FROM THE GARDEN ROUTE DIRECTION

Take the N2 heading in the direction of  Cape Town.

When you reach Riviersonderend drive through the town. Shortly after the Shell garage turn RIGHT at Greyton sign.

Following the Greyton signs, travel the gravel road for about 20 kms. Look out for the “Blue Hippo” sign on the right.

Drive into the farm, following the farm road for a short distance. Drive slowly - looking out for a sharp turn to the right at the end of the road. Turn here, driving very carefully as the road is rocky and drops quite steeply.

After a few metres you'll see two wooden buildings - one on the left, and the other on the right. Park under the trees.
