A moderately challenging out-and-back hike to the Maltese Cross, a freestanding rock formation in the Cederberg. The trail winds through unique fynbos landscapes and past fascinating sandstone formations. You need to purchase a permit at the Dwarsrivier Office (Sandrif) to do this hike. They only grant these to groups of 3 people or more.
