Du Toitskloof Pass (English: Du Toit's Rift) is situated in the Western Cape province of South Africa, on the regional route R101 between Paarl and Worcester. It was initially an animal track where a road was built around the time of World War II, including a 200m Du Toitskloof Tunnel.
Since the opening of the 3900m Huguenot Tunnel in 1988, the pass no longer forms part of the N1 national road and was renumbered as R101.
