Into the wilderness, out of the ordinary
Cederberg Ridge is a luxurious wilderness lodge offering delicious food, warm hospitality, and adventure. Enjoy panoramic views over the natural rugged beauty of the Cederberg Mountains and the range of excursions and activities we offer.
A stylish ‘away-from-it-all’ experience, yet it’s only a 2½ hour scenic drive from Cape Town or the Winelands.
Cederberg Ridge has the authentic ambience of a modern African Farmhouse. Inviting interiors with vaulted ceilings, wooden beams and natural textures give a light and airy feel. Large French windows open to a generous covered stoep and dining deck overlooking the garden and mountains beyond.
With 11 spacious rooms and suites, restaurant with a view, large swimming pool and indigenous gardens flowing into the veld, this luxury retreat offers space and style in the midst of wilderness.
The lodge overlooks the natural fynbos area of our 3,000h farm with the Cederberg Wilderness Reserve beyond. There’s a range of walking and mountain bike trails right from the lodge.
Expect immersive and awe-inspiring experiences in a wilderness dominated by huge gatherings of wildlife and the Great Wildebeest Migration.

AFRICALM
The Simbavati Lodge Collection focus is on wildlife, wilderness and wellness around our brand philosophy of ‘Africalm’ – to reconnect with nature, to reset and restore with meaningful, immersive and sustainable, authentically African experiences. We have implemented elements of Africalm across all of our lodges. For more information on Africalm, please visit https://www.simbavati.com/about-africalm/.
Africalm is a state of ‘BE-ing’ where body, mind and spirit align. This brings about a joyful presence in each moment, where the essence of life is fully appreciated.
