The Cedarberg Area

 

The magnificent Cedarberg Mountain range

 

A trip to the Cedarberg area offers the perfect breakaway for city slickers who long to leave the bright lights behind for the weekend. Only two hours north of Cape Town towers the majestic mountain range with its fascinating  rock sculptures, San rock paintings and dazzling wild flower Spring-spectacle. The rugged mountains are complemented by the tranquil waters of the Clanwilliam dam - a watersport enthusiast's paradise where swimming, sailing, water-skiing and canoeing can be enjoyed to hart's delight.
