Day Ten Potjiespram to Tattesberg


We left the campsite early morning on our way to our next campsite which would be at the Tatesberg which would take us probably the whole day as the driving conditions were very slow.

 We travelled  through the halfmens pass where we did a little climbing to get a closer look at the famous half mens tree which grows on the slopes of the kranses.
We continued and arrived at the Hand of God which is a shape of a hand in a rock. We spent a bit of time there taking a couple of photographs and took a bit of break

before continuing past De Hoop and all the way down to the Richterberg were we set up camp, again on the banks of the Orange River. The camp area was very sandy and we had no water with no ablutions only a tiolet.
