Towing in Paarl
Paarl lies on the N1 just before the Huguenot Tunnel and the Du Toitskloof Pass, and that stretch shapes much of the towing here. Trucks, caravans and holiday traffic heading inland climb towards the tunnel, and overheating engines, brake trouble and breakdowns inside or near the toll are a regular call.

Winter rain and mist on the pass, and summer heat on the long climb, test old vehicles.
