What you can expect

  • We begin our day at the Lion's Head trailhead before dawn, aiming to reach the summit by sunrise.
    The journey starts on a jeep track and becomes more challenging as we ascend, with sections that require the use of chains, staples, and ladders. The final stretch is an enjoyable scramble to the peak.
    At the summit, we'll take a break for light snacks and watch the sunrise over Cape Town. The descent is leisurely, during which the guide will share insights about the city, the mountain, its wildlife, and Cape Town's unique world heritage flora.
    Our adventure concludes where it started, at the Lion's Head Trailhead. Please note that parking is available but may be limited.
