Above the Wild – Helicopter Flights Over the Cederberg
Seeing the Cederberg from the sky is a perspective few forget. Helicopter flights over this remote and rugged mountain range reveal the full scale and majesty of its dramatic sandstone formations, deep ravines, and vast, untouched wilderness. It's an unforgettable way to experience the raw beauty of one of South Africa’s most iconic regions.
From take-off, you’re immersed in a landscape shaped by time and weather. Ancient rock towers, jagged cliffs, and sweeping valleys unfold beneath you, with bursts of colour from fynbos plains and hidden watercourses cutting through the rugged terrain. The bird’s-eye view offers a completely different appreciation of this natural masterpiece — one that hiking trails and scenic drives can’t match.
Flight routes often include flyovers of the Cederberg’s most famous landmarks: the Wolfberg Arch, Maltese Cross, and the winding Doring River. With an experienced pilot offering commentary, you'll also gain insight into the geology, history, and ecological significance of the region.
Helicopter experiences range from short scenic hops to longer exploratory flights and even mountaintop landings. Whether you’re celebrating something special or just want to see the wild like never before, a flight over the Cederberg delivers awe and inspiration in equal measure.
In a place known for its sense of isolation, flying offers the ultimate escape — a chance to lift off, look down, and truly understand the scale of the adventure that awaits.
