Guided & catered Cederberg hikes
Booking notice
We are currently only accepting bookings for self-guided / self-catered groups. Guided & Catered is coming early 2027.
Guided & catered trails – summary
For groups that prefer not to guide or cater for themselves, we are preparing a guided and catered service. We are currently building a team of independent, qualified and experienced hiking guides (and assistant guides) who have a genuine passion for the Cederberg.
Launching 2027
How it will work
- You choose your preferred menus in advance.
- Your guide purchases the food and beverages and meets your group at the Visitors Centre on day one with everything packed into coolers and boxes.
- After a trail briefing, your guide walks with you, sharing local knowledge and explaining points of interest along the way.
- At each overnight camp your guide prepares and cooks dinner, breakfast the next morning, and a lunch pack for the following day.
- Guides are usually accompanied by assistant guides (handlangers) who help with preparation and clean-up.
- Guides and assistant guides are accommodated in their own comfortable private rooms. Choosing a guided trail will not reduce the PODs available and you can still have a group of 12 hikers.
This option is ideal if you feel less confident about navigating the trail as a group, or if you simply prefer the convenience and support of a guide, and have the budget for it.
We’re Currently Hiring Independent Trail Guides
If you’re a qualified and experienced trail guide with a love for the Cederberg, its ecology and geology, we’d like to hear from you.
Please email your résumé and a short letter of motivation to: richard@klipopmekaar.co.za
ARE OPEN FOR BOOKING.
Guided trails launch in 2027, but you don’t have to wait. Book a self-guided, self-catered trip for up to 12 hikers. The route is marked, your bags travel ahead, and the next four days are all yours.
