The Cederberg, a World Heritage Site, forms part of the Cape floral region and is covered in mountain fynbos, including the laurel protea, the red disa, rooibos, and the rare and endemic snow protea. Rare Clanwilliam cedars, the area’s namesake, dot the higher mountain cliffs.
The area is also rich in wildlife, much of it rather difficult to spot : porcupines, honey badger, the Cape clawless otter, aardvark, African wild cat, bat-eared fox, aardwolf and Cape fox. Other more common animals include baboons, dassies, grey rhebok, klipspringers, duiker and grysbok.

There are several camps to stay at the Reserve. We stayed at Algeria Camp, where there is a large campsite and 6 modern cottages fully equipped.
General view of the Camp with the cottages in the foreground :
Each cottage has a large terrace with braai equipment.
View from our bedroom. I did not take picture of all rooms ; there is a second bedroom, a large kitchen and a living room with a fireplace, very useful in winter.
