South Africa: West Coast & Cederberg Map

The inland Cederberg mountains lie about 250 km north of Cape Town. The Cederberg is a large, craggy and beautiful mountain range, home to some queer and spectacular rock formations as well as some breathtaking views (from the top of Sneeuwberg on a clear day you can see the ocean).

The north-western Cape is also famed for its wild flowers. After the first rains in spring (mid-August to mid-September), the fields stretch out in blankets of vivid floral colour.
