The R355 between Ceres and Calvinia is the longest uninterrupted gravel road in South Africa — 257km across the stark, beautiful Tankwa Karoo with no towns, no fuel and no services. Endless succulent-Karoo plains ringed by the Cederberg and Roggeveld escarpments, and some of the darkest night skies on Earth. A true adventure crossing — carry water, tools and spare fuel.
