Hiking

One of the highlights of being in Cape Town! The city and the ocean lie at your feet, and at that moment, you realize what a magnificent place you are in. The view is most uplifting if you've hiked up Table Mountain yourself. But even if you've taken the cable car, this view can only make you happy – unless the "tablecloth" is spread over Table Mountain and you only see fog, which is usually clear from below.
