[Martin de Jager]

4x4AG Baboons Pass Expedition and 4x4AG most extreme.
The ultimate trip for most of the true 4x4 adventurers. It's an epic drive up one of the most well known and notorious passes in Lesotho.
A dedicated trip with one thought in mind, start to finish is a challenge, getting yourself and vehicle in one piece up the pass to the very top.

Leave home on the 8th August optional or
Friday 9th is a Public Holiday (National Women’s Day).
