mountain, views

Table Mountain is probably the most well known landmark in Cape Town, and definitely one of the most recognizable mountains in the world. There are several enjoyable hikes up the mountain, but for many the cable car is the perfect way to see Table Mountain. Since 1929 more than 18 million people have visited the top of our mountain in this way!

Chapmans Peak Drive is the scenic and mountainous road between Hout Bay and Noordhoek. The 9km route goes around 114 curves as it skirts the cliffs of Chapmans Peak overlooking the Atlantic. The views are spectacular and this is a particularly popular scenic drive.

Signal Hill is the 'rump' of Lions Head and is a very popular sundowners spot. Its location and elevation offer great views over the city, Table Mountain, and Table Bay. This spot is also popular because there is road access and a large parking lot so you can easily head out there at night to view the night lights.
