Hike Table Mountain, a Wonder of the World

TOP TRUTH EXPERIENCE

CONQUER THE MOUNTAIN THAT TOWERS ABOVE THE CITY (VIA INDIA VENSTER)

Spend a morning exploring Table Mountain emerged in nature on our best half-day hike to the summit of Table Mountain!

A challenging but incredibly beautiful route.

START: 5:30 am (Summer)

START: 7:00 am (Winter)

DURATION: 4 – 7 hours round trip

DISTANCE: 8km

ADVICE

This route involves short sections of scrambling on narrow ledges, with some sections protected with metal “staples” (or ladders), so it is not suitable for those who suffer badly from fear of heights and do not enjoy pushing their boundaries.

DIFFICULTY

This steep and challenging route requires a good fitness level.

There are many level sections along the route though that break up the climbs nicely so many people find this to be a less tiring route than Platteklip Gorge.

DESCRIPTION

We meet at the Lower Cable Station and ascend via India Venster to finish at the Upper Cable Station.

If the cablecar is open – from the summit you can choose how long you would like to stay on the summit, enjoying the views and the treats available at the “Café at the Top”, and then take the cable car down the mountain

If it is closed we will hike back down the mountain via Platteklip Gorge

Cable car tickets at R220 per adult (not included in the hike price).
