    Running

    This beautiful path runs along a water pipe - which gave it its name. It has hardly any gradients and is therefore a wonderfully relaxed, yet very beautiful running route just outside the city.

    The pipe track is not only very scenic, it also has compelling history. The trail loosely follows an old pipe that was built in the late 19th century, to supply water to the Cape Town settlement from Disa Gorge (on the southern slopes of Table Mountain).

    It provides an approach to many of the hikes up Table Mountain amongs the so-called 12 Apostles, such as Diagonal, Woody Ravine and Kasteelpoort, up to Corridor Ravine (make sure to prepare accordingly for these hikes and consult official sources for up-to-date information about the status of these routes).
