What to expect

You'll meet your guide at the Lion’s Head trailhead and begin a scenic hike up the spiral path, navigating fun rocky sections with the support of a certified local guide. For sunrise hikes, we start in the dark and hike into the light — headlamps are provided. For sunset hikes, we descend after the sun sets — headlamps will also be provided to ensure a safe return. Along the way, we’ll pause to rest, take photos, and enjoy views of Table Mountain, Camps Bay, and the Atlantic Ocean.
