This is mostly the reverse route that we did on Day 1 as we exit the Baviaanskloof. The climb out of Bergplaas is probably the most difficult, but if you stay on the concrete strips, all will be fine. If all goes well, we arrive back at the Ripple Hotel for lunch, where we can shower before heading home.
