What to expect
You can pick between two ways to go up Table Mountain. The first one, Platteklip Gorge, is the oldest and quickest. It's good if you're short on time or scared of heights.
The second way, India Venster, is a bit trickier with some climbing over rocks. It's better for experienced hikers who aren't afraid of heights. Along the way, your guide will teach you about Table Mountain's plants, animals, and history, and tell interesting stories.
You'll see amazing views of the City Bowl, oceans, and Robben Island. When you reach the top, you can take a break and enjoy the scenery before heading down to the cable car station, feeling proud to have climbed one of the New 7 Wonders of Nature.
