A long day: fast N1 freeway to Bloemfontein, then the toll-free N6 across the Orange River and through the Eastern Cape highlands.
Loading driver reports…
Grasmere (south of Joburg), Vaal (near Parys) and Verkeerdevlei (near Brandfort).
Fatigue is the main risk. Swap drivers or stop if you feel drowsy.
The N6 starts at an interchange on the N1 western bypass around Bloemfontein. Follow the N6 signs for Aliwal North.
Mostly two-lane road with heavy trucks. Only overtake where you can see well ahead.
The N6 runs through or past Reddersburg, Smithfield and Rouxville. Slow down for the town speed limits.
Fuel and food just after crossing the Orange River into the Eastern Cape.
Mountain pass north of Komani. Mist is common, and snow can close it in winter.
Animals on the road and patched surfaces are common in the Eastern Cape. Avoid driving this stretch at night.
The N6 runs through Komani (Queenstown) with robots and traffic circles. Follow the N6 signs for East London.
The N6 ends at the N2 interchange on the edge of the city.
Passengers only, or once you've stopped. Never while driving.
A tap posts the hazard and road. To add the lane, how bad it is or a tip, use "Add a detailed report" further down.
Your location is only used when you tap a button that asks for it. Reports show it rounded to about 100 m, never your exact spot. You can always type the road instead.
