Description:

The Agter-Pakhuis area, literally “beyond the Cederberg”, is an area that has always attracted and fascinated us. It has the best rock art in the world and, in a good year, the spring flowers are as good as Namaqualand’s. It’s not as cold as the Cederberg-proper, but has just as many fascinating rocks and caves. The roads are infinitely better, too. We wrote this small book in celebration of the area. Beyond the Cederberg by Peter Slingsby and Ed Coombe is a comprehensive guide to the district, its people, its facilities and its attractions for tourists, with a couple of legends and ghost stories thrown in.
