Customer Reviews
You can go there and back, but we prefer walking to the upper cable car and coming down that way. It is an awesome hike! Good exercise, lots of variety, scrambling and rock climbing, but even short people can do it! The trail is relatively well marked, but if you're doing it for the first time, use AllTrails or Strava. Best to start early (we start at around 5:20 in summer), because it can get hot until you reach the "first top", just underneath the cable car. From there, we walk around the mountain to the top. We are are used to climbing. It takes us an hour and 30/40 min. For your first time, allow around 2 hours 20 min. It shouldn't take more than 4 hours, even if you take it slow. The views are spectacular, and you have a great sense of accomplishment at the end. I would advise going with a Guide or person who's done it before on your first time. There are sections that are a little technical, and it helps when someone can show you where to put your feet, and what to do.
Gnarly man - ensure to travel with a group. AllTrails overrates many hikes as “hard” but this one’s staples & sketchier areas will have you pivoting like you’re playing a game of Twister, but you’re Spider-Man. Loved it. Even on a windy day it’s a solid experience. Plan to return down via Platteklip FYI.
Incredible hike. If you are American, this is not a typical hike. You will need to climb a few rocks, which can be jarring if you’re just expecting a “hike”. Worth the views, and the areas that require any real climbing do provide staples and chains as mentioned below.
