Lion’s Head Sunrise/Sunset
Join our sunset Hike up Lion’s Head and make friends from around the world while soaking up Cape Town’s famous sunsets from the best vantage point possible! The hike up to the summit takes roughly 1.5 hours but passes many incredible viewpoints and the trail is very exciting in places! After enjoying the summit views and photo opportunities we will hike down to a quieter viewpoint to sip some hot tea/coffee and watch the sun set over the Atlantic Ocean. Once the sun sets we hike safely back down with head torches as the city lights start to glow beneath us.

REQUIREMENTS: Minimum of 2 passengers per booking

Customer Reviews

This hike was absolutely amazing and a highlight of our stay in Cape Town. It was definitely tough in parts, but our guide Fatima was so patient, helping me through all the parts I was nervous about. She was also so positive, knowledgeable and made it a really enjoyable experience. The homemade cape-malay treats with coffee halfway up was a lovely and unexpected touch. Defo don’t do this route without a guide and wear grippy shoes!
