Head southeast on the Bartica-Mazaruni Road for approximately 30 kilometers until you reach the junction with the road leading to Maswa. Turn left at this junction. Continue on this road for about 10 kilometers until you reach a fork. Take the right fork, and you will be guided towards Bonasika Creek. Follow the signs for Bonasika and keep an eye on your GPS for the coordinates 6.7478° N, 58.5093° W. The last stretch may be unpaved, so be prepared for a bumpy ride.
