Guten Morgen!
Eine offizielle Warnung gibt es immer noch nicht....
Aber hier ein aktuelles Update aus dem 4x4-Forum von Henryv:
We have just returned from the CKGR after spending almost a week there. We entered last Saturday, and it seems the fire started on Sunday and then spread west and south. We we doing an anti clockwise route from Sunday pan to Passarge valley to Phokonje and were then booked at Piper pan, Lekubu and Lethiathu. The evening at Phokonje however, the fires were raging all around us to the east and north and some were moving towards us. At some stage we were worried we may get trapped at the campsite, but then the wind died down and we could relax. However the next morning when we tried to go to Piper pan there we just too many fires accross our way and we had to turn around. Eventually we backtracked and worked our way back to the Tau pan lodge, only to find it had been evacuated and only some fire fighting staff theee. The manager put us onto an uncharted road that took us to Lethiathu, which was abandoned and where we then spent the night. The next day we decided it was too dangerous in the area and were worried of getting trapped at Piper pan even if we could make it to there. We therefore abandoned the rest of the holiday and returned home - really a big pity. However the grass cover is very dense and extremely dry and any fire can turn very ugly in no time, depending on the wind. Due to the fact that theee aee very few roads to use for escape if needed, I think it is a very real danger that you can get trapped somewhere, so we decided to rather abandon the trip than risk being trapped between those huge fires.
