Old Lighthouse

From the top you have a great vision! You should definitely be prepared for strong winds and have a jacket with you to really enjoy it. The later the day, the stronger the wind!

Cape Point

Highlight • Viewpoint

Cape Point with historic lighthouse on the Cape of Good Hope. At the parking lot you can not continue with bike. I was advised by a ranger to turn off the wheel at the entrance to the funicular. There is also paid attention to that I have also made and then I went by train to the top. Of course, an attraction is the baboons, but you should be wary of eating.

Cape of Good Hope Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

As soon as you have left the crowds, it becomes really beautiful. Back then we only walked a small part of the way. That was really beautiful, especially the rock formations. We recommend.
