The condition of the 2km Saamrus farm road depends on the weather.
The 2km private road leading to Saamrus is a gravel farm road. It is not maintained by any road authority, but by the dedicated Saamrus staff. The condition of the road depends on the weather. In the rainy season all their good work can be washed away in one rainy night leaving the surface very slippery and full of potholes.
For about two weekends every year, the Saamrus Plan B springs into action - all cars has to park safely in the car park at Magalies Hotel. The parking has a 24 hour security guard and security gate. Magaliesburg is only 10km from Saamrus. You will be picked up and delivered safely to your cottage and back to your car again on departure. For those two weeks of the year diff-lock bakkies and 4 x 4 vehicles have lots of fun and exclusive use of the farm road!
When the road is dry during summer, it is accessible by car, but if you come with a very low sporty car, you will find it quite difficult.
