Discover Cederbergen
The Cederbergen, located between Clanwilliam and Citrusdal, form an untouched gem of South African nature. This breathtaking area stretches over 100 kilometers and is renowned for its dramatic reddish rock formations, majestic waterfalls, and intriguing caves with ancient rock art. The Cedarberg Wilderness Area, a protected nature reserve within this mountainous landscape, offers an inviting environment for adventurers and nature lovers alike. A highlight of the Cederbergen is the impressive Wolfberg Arch, a natural stone arch over 3 meters high that gives you a sense of insignificance compared to the power of nature.
The Cederbergen are not only a visual spectacle but also rich in history. Over ten thousand years ago, the Bushmen (San) painted the walls of caves in this area, and these artworks are still visible today. The Agter Pakhuis Cave even has the highest density of rock paintings in all of southern Africa, making it a unique archaeological treasure. A visit to the authentic village of Clanwilliam is highly recommended, especially for tea enthusiasts. This charming town is the only place in the world where the rooibos plant grows, and the local rooibos tea is truly unrivaled.
