I did this hike starting mid afternoon on a beautiful Friday. Not too long but steep at the top and a lot of scrambling up rocks - if you want graded trails there are some great views before that starts but you won't want to...More

fantastic views, any weather or time of day... Best time to see it is early morning when all the birds are flying around...winter time is actually not that cold. It's like you are in another world.

Locals said it takes 30min to climb Lion's Head. Don't be fooled ! It's not a walk in the park. You have to climb to the top. We thought that there was something like stairs or whatever else. But no ! Haha ! I had...More

The going up is a bit of a challenge but its so worth it when you get up and you will see a 360 degree of how lovely Cape Town is

path to lion's head is well maintained. wear good shoes which do not slip. take a water bottle, dont drink much at once. once you get there, you will forget the workout in those awesome views. it is 'out of this world'
