From Hobhouse:

From Durban:
Even though the drive via Golden Gates is spectacular, the 40km stretch of road between Fouriesburg & Ficksburg is not good.
Here is an alternative suggestion:
– N3 to Harrismith.
– Travel via Bethlehem, Paul Roux, Senekal, Marquard, Clocolan, to Ladybrand.
(The 25km stretch between Marquard & Clocolan, is nearly as bad as the Fouriesburg/Ficksburg stretch, but shorter).
From Jo’burg:
1st option:
We would firmly recommend that you travel on the N1 via Bloemfontein, because of the current conditions of the road surfaces on the alternative shorter routes. Take the first Bloemfontein off-ramp off the N1, and follow the Bram Fischer airport signs, to get to the N8 (roughly 10km).
See above directions ‘From Bloemfontein’.
