Break away to the Cederberg for the ultimate luxury wilderness escape, and discover the magic of the stars and the wonders of our universe and with one of South Africa’s venerable stargazers. Cliff Turk is a member of the Astronomical Society of Southern Africa, fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society and a member of the British Astronomical Association, as well as the Society for the History of Astronomy. He is also a partner of the Cederberg Observatory and a keen astro-photographer, and observer of eclipses, variable stars, comets and meteors.
Everyone who has visited the Cederberg will agree that there are few places that offer a better opportunity for stargazing. During the Bushmans Kloof Stargazing in the Cederberg getaways, guests will be taken on thrilling night drives in an open Land Rover to discover the lunar stratosphere under an infinite night sky.
In contrast to the ancient landscape of wind-sculpted rock formations, the award-winning Bushmans Kloof lodge is an oasis surrounded by natural beauty and priceless ancient rock art site. It is a safe haven for abundant indigenous flora and fauna, and one of South Africa’s Natural Heritage sites. With a host of enriching, relaxing and well-being experiences on offer, from educational forays to more than 130 historic Bushman rock art sites, to thrilling outdoor adventures and healing spa experiences, guests are spoiled for choice.
Rated among the world’s best, this Relais & Chateaux lodge received a standing ovation from the industry in 2008, with no less than five coveted tourism accolades, among which two top international accolades: The Forbes Traveler 400 Best Hotels (2008/9), and National Geographic Adventure Magazine’s Top 50 Eco Lodges for 2008. It was also recently named among Condé Nast Traveler Gold List Best Hotels in Africa and the Middle East (2009).
