Overview

  • Are you someone who loves watching the sunrise and sunset, enjoys outdoor adventures, and appreciates the beauty of nature? Then you should definitely consider embarking on an unforgettable adventure with a qualified private Adventure Guide to hike up Lions Head. This iconic peak offers stunning views of the sunrise and sunset that will take your breath away. The sunrise hike in particular is a truly picturesque experience, as you watch the sun rise over the peaks of the Helderberg mountains, casting a golden net over the city and Table Mountain. The sunset hike, on the other hand, offers a moment of beautiful stillness, where you can witness the multiple palettes of shades reflecting off the Atlantic ocean and merging into the magnificent moody cape blanket sky. Join us for a safe and exciting adventure that you will never forget.
