Campsite Overview
Ruah Camping is a small campsite located on a working table grape farm in the Hex River Valley, close to De Doorns. The campsites cater for camping trailers, bush caravans or vehicles with higher ground clearance. Surrounded by majestic mountains and tranquil river streams, it offers a peaceful retreat for those seeking a break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
The grass-covered campsites are shaded and overlook the river. They have a beautiful view towards the valley as well. Each site has a braai area. There is a communal ablution block with showers, toilets and washbasins.
While swimming is not allowed at the weir at the campsite or in the reservoir, there is a rock pool for swimming about a 5-minute walk on the trail. Campers can feel free to roam, jog, cycle around on the farm. There is a trail passing the swimming rock pool which is less used, but will take you to a San rock art site, and more pools.

Camper Reviews
Quiet with good facilites
We used this campsite as our basecamp as it was in close proximity to the Old Hex River Tunnels that we wanted to explore. Camp sites are a decent size, ablutions are good. Enough shade. Quiet even though it is relatively close to the town. Playground consists of a swing and a seesaw both of which need attention. The stream is too small for fishing etc however there is a nice short walk up to a larger rock pool where you can swim. 220v provided.
