Day 6/7
We will make an early start to experience the crisp desert air riding towards Vioolsdrif border and onto Aquacade camp on the banks of the Orange River. We arrive before lunch to row on the Orange River for the rest of the day. A very good friend of mine owns aquacade and this makes for a very pleasant stay. Those that feel up to it will row for the afternoon to a good fishing spot for some yellow fish on the fly and stay over for the night on the river.
