Lion's Head Sunrise/Sunset Hike

Cape Town

Activity Description

Join our sunset Hike up Lion’s Head and make friends from around the world while soaking up Cape Town’s famous sunsets from the best vantage point possible! The hike up to the summit takes roughly 1.5 hours but passes many incredible viewpoints and the trail is very exciting in places! After enjoying the summit views and photo opportunities we will hike down to a quieter viewpoint to sip some hot tea/coffee and watch the sun set over the Atlantic Ocean. Once the sun sets we hike safely back down with head torches as the city lights start to glow beneath us.

Customer Reviews

Our tour guide Fatima provided insightful information about the various herbal plants we encountered along the trail, making the hike not only beautiful but also educational. Fatima went above and beyond by taking videos of each of us during the challenging climb to the peak, which was a fantastic personal touch. She also helped us capture stunning photos at the summit, ensuring we had memories to take home. - Lim
