Table Mountain

Table Mountain is easily Cape Town's most recognisable landmarks. Years ago, it proved a welcome sight to seafarers (on a clear day it's visible from 200 kilometres out to sea). The summit of the mountain is 3km wide and Maclear's Beacon, its highest point, rises to a height of 1085m.

Although there are numerous hiking trails to the top of the mountain, the revolving cable car is a less strenous alternative for those wanting to make the ascent. There are over 2 kilometres of paths and numerous view sites on the summit.

At the upper cable station you can relax and have a meal at a restaurant or explore the gift shop. If you prefer to sit and watch the sun set over the city, the Cableway Cocktail Bar is ideal and the facility is also available for functions. The Summit Boardroom accommodates up to 80 guests and offers a different venue for staff training or entertaining VIP guests.
