Table Mountain Hike & Cable Car Descent

Take on Cape Town's most iconic natural wonder with our Table Mountain Hike & Cable Car Descent a must-do adventure for anyone visiting the Mother City.

Activity Description

Experience Cape Town’s most iconic natural landmark with our Table Mountain Hike & Cable Car Descent. Ascend one of the New 7 Wonders of Nature on foot and enjoy a spectacular cable car ride down — the perfect balance of adventure and comfort.

Your day begins with a relaxing drive to the trailhead. From here, your professional guide leads you up one of the mountain’s most popular and rewarding routes — usually Platteklip Gorge, the classic direct ascent.

As you climb, your guide will share fascinating stories about the mountain’s unique fynbos, ancient rock formations, and rich history within the Table Mountain National Park.

At the top, take your time exploring the vast plateau. Enjoy 360° views of Table Bay, the City Bowl, Robben Island, and the Twelve Apostles — a photographer’s dream.

When you’re ready, glide down in comfort on the Table Mountain Aerial Cableway, floating above dramatic cliffs with unbeatable coastal and city views.

Every hike is private and flexible. Choose your pace, preferred start time, or an alternative route — whether you’re chasing a sunrise or planning a relaxed mid-morning ascent.
