Cederberg
A traverse of the Cederberg mountain range
7-day Cederberg Traverse
The Cederberg mountains are located near Clanwilliam a small town some 300km north of Cape Town. Characterised by raw and dramatic beauty, this wilderness area features impressive wind-carved rock formations, such as the Maltese cross and Wolfberg Arch, and is home to many San rock paintings.
The landscape is varied, rough and rugged and offers a true wilderness experience. Although we spend most of the route on trails, the terrain is very technical (rocky and sometimes overgrown section), challenging and cannot be underestimated.
