Full-day Table Mountain Hike

It will likely be tempting just to take the cable car to the top when standing at the foot of Table Mountain, knowing that you will be spending the next many hours climbing up there – on foot. We promise you that the hike to the top is well worth it – and the view is just that little bit better when you’ve walked all the way up there! You’ll be accompanied all the way by a skilled guide who knows the mountain well, so you won’t have to worry about finding your way and you’ll learn much more about the nature and geology of the area.

There are a number of different routes you can choose to walk. On all of them, you need to be in reasonable physical shape to do the walk, but as you’re accompanied by a guide, you needn’t be a mountaineer or an experienced climber. All the walks are hikes and you should reckon on it taking at least 4 hours to get to the top.

The price applies when booked at the same time as the tour. At least 2 people:

Platteklip Gorge

Platteklip Gorge is the oldest route to the top of the mountain. You should expect to get out of breath because the route is relatively steep, but it’s the most popular and most direct route to the top.

Price per person: £120

India Venster

This route is for those who are up for a challenge. The views are amazing. The route is varied but still doable. However, you should have a head for heights and you should be prepared to crawl a little in some sections.

Price per person: £120

Skeleton Gorge

Skeleton Gorge is a scenic and relatively long route, taking you through jungle-like areas and offering great views of the area behind the mountain.

Price per person: £128

12 Apostles

12 Apostles is one of the longer and more challenging routes. This said, you have longer to enjoy the mountain and the scenery as well as to learn more about the nature and geology.

Price per person: £128
