Sightseeing
Feel like a bit of exercise? This is such a great place to take in the views of Table Mt, Table Bay, the downtown from your vantage point above the City. The walk takes from the cable station along the Tafelberg road which is tarred and mainly quite flat so realy just a gentle place to stroll & admire the magnificent views.
