From Nelspruit the group will travel down the R40 towards Barberton. The convoy will enter the nature reserve at the bottom of Hilltop Pass and begin a tour, down the Noord Kaap River, of historical sites connected with Jamestown.  These span the period from the initial discovery of alluvial gold through to subsequent diggings and mining activities over the next few decades.

Only high clearance vehicles are advised. Bring a picnic lunch.  Lunch near the Noord Kaap River will mark the end of the outing.  There will be short walks away from the vehicles through the bush.  Tick bite repellent will be advisable.
