Table Top Mountain

Table Mountain Cable Car Ride R250  $26USD
www.tabletopmountain.net

The five-minute ascent to the top of Table Mountain offers a 360° view of Cape Town, the ocean and the neighbouring peaks.
Once at the top visitors enjoy spectacular views and the peaceful feeling of being over one thousand metres above the city below. The area at the top of the mountain is surprisingly large so leave enough time to stroll along the paths, enjoy the viewing platforms and soak up the vistas.
The Cableway operates in the Table Mountain National Park, an important part of the Cape Floristic Region and the single richest floristic area in the world. This area is also a World Heritage Site. There is a lot of Fynbos vegetation on the mountain, with over 1 460 different species of plants.
Populations of Rock Hyrax (Procavia capensis), commonly known as dassies, are plentiful on the mountain. You may also see porcupines, mongooses, girdled lizards, agamas, snakes and butterflies.
Several indigenous bird species can be seen, including Redwinged Starlings, Cape Verreaux’s Eagles, Rock Kestrels and Sunbirds.
Indigenous plant and animals can be seen while enjoying the free guided walks departing daily at 10h00 and noon.
There is an excellent self-service restaurant and deli for visitors to enjoy food and drinks either seated at the indoor and outdoor tables or to picnic along the plateau. There is also a delicious ice-cream shop. See the shop page for information on things to buy.
Many visitors enjoy walking up the mountain and taking the cable car back down. The recommended route for the walk up is via Platteklip Gorge to the Upper Cable Station.

1st car up at 8:00am
Last car down 20:00
