How To Reach The Majestic Table Mountain:

For people living in Cape Town, Table Mountain is a spectacular backdrop and an anchor physically and spiritually. Up close to the coast of South Africa, the famous plateau of the mountain is an important part of short upland that extends from Signal Hill – just east of the City Centre to Cape Point – where the Light House stands out as the meeting place of the Indian Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean. It’s obvious that the most popular route to the top is to take the aerial cableway – a sizable car that rotates on the ascent. But if you’d rather like to get the utmost thrill, you can tackle one of the mountain biking trails that goes along the side of the face !

How To Get The Most Out Of A Table Mountain Biking Tour:

• During spring or summer, the city of Cape Town will be in full bloom! There, you’ll get to see pretty cape daisies and heathers in the wilderness and enjoy watching the proteas and the warsonias adding splashes of red, white and pink color to the whole surrounding!

• In fact, the wildlife sightings stay at the top of the entertainment value! Top stars of the show include the dassies, placid creatures which resemble monster guinea pigs, and various types of bird life unique to the area.

•  The awe-inspiring views when you’re up next to the King’s Blockhouse and gaze out over the city to the ocean beyond – you’ll feel like you’re on top of the world!

Conclusion:

What more perfect way to experience the scenic splendours and the beauty of the Cape Peninsula than overlooking sea and land – savoring the best of both worlds with mountain biking! Just pedal your way around the splendid Mountain with an expert guide to accompany you along the way.
