About Admire Rock Art in the Cederberg
Plan a day trip from Cape Town and walk the Sevilla Rock Art Trail in the Cederberg.
You can expect to see ten rock art sites along this four kilometre route with hundreds of paintings. It is estimated that the paintings date back between 1600 and 8000 years, so it is understandable that some of them are faded and difficult to see.
The path to follow starts at Brandewyn River - please remember to obtain a permit from Travellers Rest. This trip is worth the three hour drive from Cape Town but if you don’t feel like rushing back from the peace and quiet of the country, you could always overnight in the area.
