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.

What to expect

If you're looking to experience stunning sunrises or sunsets while hiking, Lion's Head is the perfect destination. It's one of Cape Town's most popular hiking trails and offers breathtaking views from the top.

Whether you choose to embark on a sunrise or sunset hike, you're in for a treat. On a sunrise hike, you'll get to watch the world awaken as the sun comes up. You'll be guided by a knowledgeable local mountain guide who will help you navigate the trail at your own pace. Along the way, you'll get to take advantage of the best photo opportunities and learn about the history, culture, and flora and fauna of the Cape.

As you make your way up, you'll be able to take in panoramic views of the city, Table Mountain, Camp's Bay, and the Atlantic Ocean. It's a great way to enjoy an athletic outdoor activity while immersing yourself in the natural beauty of Cape Town.

For both the sunrise and sunset hikes, we will start at least 2 hours before the sun sets/rises and we will provide headlamps for hiking in the dark.
