What to expect

Table Mountain offers some of the most unique and dramatic climbing experiences you can find on earth! We will usually take the Cable Car up and abseil/rappel down the cliff that we will be climbing. Depending on the time of day we will be climbing above the Atlantic Ocean (Camps Bay) or above Cape Town City Centre, either way, it's mind-blowing. The climbing is all traditional (no bolts are in the rock) and it will involve 3-4 pitches (+- 100m/300ft.) of climbing. Grades and Skill level: - It is advised to have a basic level of rock-climbing experience but most of our clients have never done a multi-pitch before! - Grades are adjusted for each client and their needs. Note: the attractions below will be in clear view during our activity. Actually, we'll have the BEST view around :)
