Skeleton Gorge Hike op ad Taffelbjerget
Beskrivelse
Vandretur op på Taffelbjerget via den smukt skovklædte Skeleton Gorge med erfarne lokale guider! Fra Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden vil vi først vandre i haven og besøge en række af dens højdepunkter, før vi bestiger slugten under Afromontane Forest baldakin. Stien følger trappet gangsti samt forrevne vandløbsvandring, hvor der er 6 træstiger at forcere. Om vinteren kan vi bestige Nursery Ravine ved siden af, hvis vi mener, at forholdene er for våde og risikable. Når vi først er på bagbordet (nederste plateau) ved 740m ASL fortsætter vi til Maclear's Beacon på 1086m ASL og passerer gennem den utroligt livlige Fynbos flora, som gør Cape så speciel. Efter at have nået toppen får vi udsigt over byen og går derefter til svævebanen for at komme ned. Kirstenbosch åbner klokken 08:00 - starttidspunktet for vandringen.

I found Table Mountain Treks and Tours by accident after contacting other companies and having no response from them. Anyway I would highly recommend Table Mountain Treks and Tours. Lindsay is very responsive to emails and giving details of the tours they provide. We did 2 Hikes with Justin, the first was to Lion Head where he picked us up at our accomodation and then kindly at the end dropped us at Table Mountain. This hike was nice did it at sunrise, I am scared of heights but Justin was extremely patient and gave me other options to get up the Mountain. His knowledge of plants, birdlife and the mountain and Cape Town were Outstanding. the second hike our son did with Justin - Skeleton Gorge. Justin again picked our son up and they had a great time doing the hike even though it rained and they got soaked. Justin was an extremely awesome guide. I would highly recommend if you are in cape Town and want a guide to use TABLE MOUNTAIN TREKS AND TOURS.
We did this amazingly beautiful hike starting from Kirstenbosch Botanical Garden with Mark, who offered us great insights in the „Flora and Fauna“ of the Table Mountain. The hike is strenous, but very achievable for medium fit people. Mark adjusted the pace to us and there was always time to take photos, drink, learn or just enjoy the scenery. You will walk up to the reservoir via Skeleton Gorge and go back via the Nursery Ravine (when the Cable Car is not operating). It was overall very pleasant and one of our highlights on our trip so far. The booking and organisation was straightforward. Thank you again, Mark! 10/10 would recommend!
