コーヒー/紅茶または夕日と一緒に日の出のためのライオンのヘッドハイキング
説明
ライオンズ・ヘッドを登るトレイルは、山をぐるりと囲む風光明媚な螺旋状の道に沿っており、昇るたびに変化する景色を楽しむことができます。 道中は険しく険しく、岩の断面を手や足で慌ただしく乗り越えなければならない。 ルートは、チェーン手すりを備えた狭い棚を越える前に最初のはしごまで続きます。 ここから合流点にたどり着き、2つの岩のセクションをはしごで登り、南東尾根の紋章にたどり着く。 頂上付近では、最後の直線は短いスクランブルと最後のはしごを1本行ってから、669 - メートル峰に達する。 ライオンズヘッドの頂上からは、ケープタウンとテーブルマウンテンの360度の壮大な眺めをお楽しみいただけます。 日没とともに明かりが点灯し、徐々に街が賑やかになっていく様子や、日の出とともに明かりが消えていく様子など、光の変化が忘れられないパノラマを作り出します。 必要に応じてヘッドランプも装備。 下りも同じルートをたどり、60分前後で到着する。
ツアーオプション
旅程
ライオンズ ヘッドのハイキングには、山を一周する急なスクリュートップ ルートがあり、完了までに約 2 時間かかります。大西洋の海岸線の眺めから、壮大なテーブル マウンテンの十二使徒まで、あらゆる方向の景色を眺めることができます。一部のセクションでは岩が多いトレイルなので、手を使って岩をよじ登る必要があるかもしれません。標高 669 メートルのライオンズ ヘッドの頂上からは、テーブル マウンテンを背景に 360 度の景色を眺めることができます。ライオンズ ヘッドは、世界最小の花王国の 1 つに位置します。
天候が良ければ、ケープタウンの壮観な海岸の景色と好条件の風を利用して、ライオンズ・ヘッドや近くのシグナルヒルから色とりどりのパラグライダーが優雅に飛行する姿を眺めることができます。 パラグライダーは完全に天候に左右されるため、目撃情報は保証できませんが、ライオンズ・ヘッドの体験に忘れられない雰囲気を添えることがよくあります。

Our guide Patrick was on time, the pick-up was perfectly coordinated with the sunrise (but logically also very early ...) The tour itself is moderately demanding - a bit strenuous, a bit scrabbling and some (easy) ladders. Muscle soreness guarantee for untrained 😀 - but Patrick left us as much time as we needed and helped with hints and tips if necessary. The hike at night with headlamps, the view and nature were impressive. However, it can also quickly get full on the hill. Headlamps and coffee for the summit were available. At no point was it hectic, we had as much time as we wanted. The path is relatively clear and probably feasible on its own. I was grateful for our guide - in some places I would have been unsure and there is a certain risk of injury (stumbling etc). In addition, we received just the right amount of information all around. Patrick was a safe and pleasant guide - Thank you!
Hi Florian, Thank you so much for your wonderful and detailed review! I’m really glad to hear that you enjoyed the Lion’s Head hike – from the magical start with headlamps to the sunrise at the summit with coffee. 😊 Yes, it’s definitely an early start, but as you mentioned, the views at the top make it all worthwhile. I also appreciate your comments about the trail difficulty – it’s great feedback for future guests to know what to expect. It was a real pleasure guiding you and sharing some tips along the way. I’m happy you felt safe, unhurried, and able to fully enjoy the experience.
This is a moderately difficult hike with some ladders and scrambling included. Patrick was a fantastic guide and incredibly knowledgeable. The views were breathtaking and it was well worth the effort.
Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m delighted you enjoyed the hike and found the challenge worthwhile. The ladders and scrambling definitely add some adventure, and I’m glad the breathtaking views made it all the more rewarding. It was a pleasure guiding you, and I’d be happy to welcome you back for another hike in Cape Town!
Our guide Patrick was wonderful. He hikes lions head or table rock Mountain several times weekly. Lions head is a very technical hike. On a difficulty scale of one being easy and 10 being hardest, I would rate this one a solid eight. You will definitely need hiking boots and need to be in good shape as there are a couple of ladders to climb up, steep rocks to traverse and a few narrow passages.
Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing your experience! I’m glad you enjoyed the Lion’s Head hike—it’s definitely a technical and adventurous climb, and you did a fantastic job tackling the ladders, steep rocks, and narrow passages. I always enjoy guiding guests on this beautiful trail and showing off the incredible views of Cape Town. I really appreciate your feedback and hope to see you again for another adventure on Table Mountain or beyond!
A definite highlight of my time in Cape Town! Sunrise on Lions Head is magical (even with the early start!) Patrick is a fantastic guide - communicative, friendly, and also knows all the good photo spots :) Patrick goes the extra mile to ensure his guests have a great time. He is extremely knowledgeable and more than happy to share his expertise and South Africa recommendations during his adventure with you. Highly recommend!
Good day Fiona, Thank-you for having joined me on 2 hikes! I'm really glad you enjoyed the magical sunrise on Lion’s Head—it’s always worth the early start! It was a pleasure guiding you and sharing some of my favorite spots and tips along the way. I’m happy to hear the experience was a highlight of your time in Cape Town. Hope to see you back for another adventure soon! Thank-you Patrick
I had a beautiful experience doing the lions head sunrise hike. Patrick my guide was very professional and catered to my every need. He carried my jacket, brought tea and coffee for us to enjoy whilst watching the sunrise which was beautiful. Views amazing and guide was fantastic. Would highly recommend.
Dear Jacqui Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us! We're delighted to hear that you had such a beautiful and memorable time during the Lions Head sunrise hike. It’s fantastic to know that Patrick’s professionalism and attentiveness enhanced your adventure. We truly appreciate your kind words about him and the stunning views you enjoyed. Your recommendation means the world to us, and we are so glad we could help create such a special moment. We hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable experience in the future! Thank-you
The hike was amazing! Patrick is such a nice guide, very talkative and knows a lot about the (history of the) country. The pick-up/drop-off was very convenient and the hike was no rush at all and there was plenty of time to enjoy the amazing view/take pictures. Since the hike also took place although it was only me, I highly recommend this activity for solo travelers. Thanks Patrick! :)
Michael was an amazing guide. Took the hike at my own rithm, explained everything nature, took pictures, encouraged me to keep pushing but always made me feel at ease. The views are breathtaking both at sunset and coming down at night. I truly recommend and will do it again!
