Travel north from Cape Town and ove the Piekenierskloof pass and you descend into a different world. You are only two hours drive away and yet the country has changed; wilder, warmer with a raw, dramatic beauty. Towering mountains, brilliant purple in the late afternoon light, preside over a fruit-filled valley laden with the scent of orange blossom in the spring. This is Africa - magnificent and awe-inspiring.
Journey to the mission village of Wupperthal deep in the Cederberg, walk in the mountains, swim in the clear mountain rockpools, visit the ancient San rock art or simply relax and enjoy the exhilarating peace of this unspoilt paradise. The wild spring flowers are a spectacular sight in August and early September. During the rest of the year this safe and friendly region offers a rich natural heritage and unspoilt beauty.
Nearby are the white sandy beaches of Lambert's Bay and Elands Bay, with their relaxed hospitality typified by outdoor seafood restaurants. Bird Island, with its thousands of cormorants and gannets, is a sight not to be missed and adventure-seekers will enjoy sandboarding and quad biking on the sand dunes.
