Climb Table Mountain or Lions Head for R350.00
Ever wanted to conquer the iconic Table Mountain or majestic Lions Head? Contact us to make it possible for you
There are more plant species on Table Mountain than there are in the entire United Kingdom, and we will encounter fauna in the form of rock hyraxes, colourful lizards and a variety of birdlife.
The Table Mountain National Park is a World Heritage Site, and an ecologically sensitive area with plants and animals that occur nowhere else in the world.
We follow the oldest, easiest and most direct route to the summit and therefore also the most popular. We follow a well-defined path, that leads up rock steps, with minimal scrambling. It tops out near the upper cable station.
At the upper cable station there is a restaurant, a café and a curio shop.
Return tickets for the cable car can be purchased at the upper cable station.
Distance: about 3km up!
Time: between 1hr for the super fit to 3hrs for the slow
Rating: moderate to tough, depending on fitness and weather
Children: older children yes, but it is demanding
