6 places
Devil's Peak Hike
The Table Mountain sibling hike to the peak that frames the City Bowl — a steep, quiet summit away from the cableway crowds.
Cederberg Wolfberg Arch Hike
The iconic Cederberg hike to the Wolfberg Arch and Crack — two nights, rock formations, and a high plateau camp.
Du Toitskloof Hike
A Boland mountain hike between Paarl and Worcester — high passes, a waterfall tunnel, and a Cape-fold range crossing.
Lion's Head
The spiral hike above Cape Town with the city's best summit payoff — short, steep, and busy.
Table Mountain
Cape Town's flat-topped icon — take the cableway up, or hike Plattekloof Gorge if you're fit and the weather's right.
Robberg Nature Reserve
A narrow peninsula of rocky cliffs and seals near Plettenberg Bay, with a world-class half-day circuit.
