Table Mountain Hike via Platteklip Gorge at Sunrise Discount Tickets

Overview

One of the most popular hikes on our beloved Table Mountain (platte klip in Afrikaans), name's after the flat rocks found on the route. The ‘stairway to heaven’ is the go-to route up Table Mountain for locals alike, although with 650 meters of elevation gained in less than 3 km it is no easy feat! The world belongs to those who get up early. To be one of the few to witness the sunrise on Table Mountain is always special. You can’t beat watching the sunrise from the top of the world and Table Mountain is the closest you’ll get in Cape Town. We will hike up Table Mountain with head lamps to experience the thrill of being the few if not the only one hiking Table Mountain this early at dawn. Watch the light catch the Cape Town Stadium, while the rest of the city comes alive. When you’re so high up, even overcast days don’t matter, because you will be above the clouds. Stop off to grab some coffee at to top cable car station and back at your hotel still in time to catch breakfast!
