Description

Highest peak in the Cedarberg range. On route to the top is the monolithic Maltese Cross, a solid 20 m high rock pillar, eerily shaped like its famous namesake. On a clear day, the view from the Sneeuberg summit stretches to the Atlantic Ocean, more than 100 km away.

Thanks to Johan Groeneveld for this description.
