It starts at the Bushmans Nek Border Post, in Underberg.

A quick note about safety. Can you do it solo? Do you need a crew? 
You can do it solo, best to have a handheld GPS, spare batteries, and a head lamp.

Do you need any special permissions / permits? 
Yes - permits were R50 from the border post.

3 pro tips for people wanting to do this:
