Waste Management Strategy

Waste Management Strategy

The Cederberg Conservancy does not have the benefit of municipal waste removal services. This resulted in uncontrolled small scale waste dump sites located on individual properties in the Cederberg Conservancy. This practice could pose significant threats to the health and well-being of the environment, residents and visitors, and could detract from the character of this beautiful Cederberg area. For these reasons the Cederberg Conservancy compiled and implemented a Waste Management Strategy.

About Cederberg Conservancy

  • The Cederberg Conservancy was constituted in 1997 as a voluntary agreement between landowners to manage the environment in a sustainable manner. It consolidates 22 properties in the central Cederberg as one of the core corridors of the Greater Cederberg Biodiversity Corridor and it is active through quarterly meetings and awareness days.

    Visitors to the area can engage in bird watching or easy hikes to the Stadsaal cave and Elephant rock art. For the more adventurous visitor the Conservancy offers Mountain bike trails or overnight hiking trials that vary from one to five nights, depending on your level of fitness and ability.
