Rob,
I just stumbled across the April 2005 edition of the South African 4x4 magazin "Drive out". One of the reports covers the Namaqua 4x4 track. Fist section to Vioolsdrif can even be made by non 4x4 vehicles (if sufficient ground clearance), the second leg contains the Helskloof circular route, which seems to be tougher.
After strong rains the trail might be difficult to find in some places, so some scouting could be necessary.
Booking the trail contact:
namakwaland@intekom.co.za
or phone 027 718 2985/6
Also check website www.northerncape.org.za
Good luck!
Hans
