I found this to be one of the more difficult hikes but the views from the peak is incredible! It takes about 2 hours to the peak. I recommend bringing a hiking stick to make the hike easier.

Took a cycle up Table mountain road today. Roadworks need to come out and check the condition of the pedestrian road at the end of Table mountain road. It needs upgrading guys..tourist's are walking here..I passed a couple of tourists using walking sticks and there's no seating along this area for them..come on guys.. we can do better than that?!

It was a nice climb, working on the legs. Macnificent views all round . You can see Hangklip on a clear day and Gordonsbay. Helderbeeg in the distance and also the hills near Riebeeck Kasteel. Wow !!!

Best (easy) route to climb table mountain. Begin with Devil's Peak hike and continue with Platteklip Gorge when it crosses. Beautiful scenery with green plants, rocky cave, mini waterfall, tree covered pathways and of course the beautiful view of Cape Town. There is absolutely no big rocks to climb and definately no 1000ds of rocky stairs to climb. Trust me, Platteklip Gorge is a nightmare for unfit people. In my experience, we always end up short on water. The one climb on a cloudy day was more enjoyable than the scorching sun but terrible at the top. Watch out for strong winds and slippery rocks. In the end, it is worth the view.

A steep hike approximately taking 2 hours to reach the top. The 360 view from the top is stunning and makes the hike worth it. Careful coming back down because there are slippery sections and it’s best to wear proper hiking shoes instead of takkies.
