This cache is located on the 21km Clarence Drive, which is a magnificent scenic coastal drive between Rooi-Els and Gordons Bay. If you like passes with lots of corners, then this one is for you, as it contains 77 bends, curves and corners of which four are in excess of 150 degrees. The road is in a beautiful condition and attracts tourists, locals, bikers and cyclists in their droves. Overtaking is fairly limited and in general one can expect to average well below 60 kph.
It is one of those drives that national and international tourists alike should not leave Cape Town without experiencing! The road is named after Jack Clarence, whose vision and foresight motivated the construction of the road. There are 2 stone cairns erected on the side of the road at different points. One is in honour of Jack Clarence and the other is to commemorate the modernisation and upgrading of the road in 1998.
This is one of those roads that should ideally be driven at a leisurely pace. It is safe with lots of safe places to stop to enjoy the breath-taking views over the dramatic scenery of towering mountains meeting the rugged coastline. The route will take approximately 30 minutes to drive.
