Overview
Hike to the top of Table Mountain, one of the new 7 Wonders of Nature & take the cable car back down. There are 2 route options to choose from (please select correct option at booking): A. India Venster, a more adventurous, rugged & technical route to the top. Ideal for those looking for a more adventurous & thrilling way to hike up. Involves rugged, uneven terrain & some rock scrambling. More exciting. Less crowded. Duration +-3.5 hours B. Platteklip Gorge, a more direct, less technical route to the top. Ideal for those looking for the most straightforward way to hike up. Involves hundreds of big rock steps all the way to the top. Less exciting. More crowded. Duration +-2.5 hours Both routes are not easy & require a few hours of steep uphill hiking on rocky terrain to get to the top. Both routes end at the top of Table Mountain where we will take the cable car back down (if open). If the cable car is closed (due to weather/maintenance), we will hike back down the more direct route.
