Why this trip

Table Mountain is what makes Cape Town special for active travellers: a rock wall in the middle of the city with many routes leading up it. In Table Mountain National Park you choose between Platteklip Gorge, a steep direct ascent with many steps, and longer paths with a far view over two oceans. An honest look at your own fitness is worthwhile here, because the sun burns and the wind can turn. It is more leisurely in the Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden, whose paths run along the eastern flank of the mountain and suit a rest day well.

At the Cape of Good Hope, at the end of the Cape Peninsula, a coastal hike awaits you through a protected area with rocks and wind. A visit to the penguins of Boulders Beach fits with it. From May to September it is winter at the Cape, with rain fronts but also clear days and less heat, which is often more pleasant for hiking. Addo, Hluhluwe and Johannesburg are neighbours for onward travel with a safari.
