Oppermanskop is the highest mountain above sea-level in the Northern Cape. The hike has no clear trail, which means it is up to you figure out the best path possible, manoeuvring through bushes and climbing over rocks (with the help of Trailforks of course). When facing Oppermanskop you will see two very visible clusters of rocks- we recommend you pass both on the left hand side. Once you are on the top you can enjoy the breath-taking view of the Blydefontein's fields, big wind turbines and enjoy the silence that only the Karoo has to offer.
