Cape Town’s most popular hike.  A moderate 1.5 hour ascent. Enjoy panoramic city views and a gorgeous Atlantic ocean sunset. This is the best way to capture a glowing picture of Table Mountain. Learn about the points of historic, cultural and natural interest in the Mother City below as well as across the bay, as if you were soaring in the sky. Descend as the sun falls and see the city lights light up the skyline. A unique view of Cape Town.
