Make your Cape Town adventure unforgettable with a personalized small-group hike up Lion’s Head, limited to just 7 guests for a relaxed, intimate experience. As the trail winds around the mountain, you’ll enjoy ever-changing panoramic views at every turn.
At the summit, stand on the famous Lion’s Head “Instagram rock” and take in breathtaking 360-degree views—one of the best vantage points on the mountain. A sunrise hike is highly recommended for cooler temperatures, fewer crowds, and stunning morning light.
Along the way, you may spot rock hyraxes (dassies), lizards, or even porcupines, while discovering the unique Cape fynbos found nowhere else in the world. You’ll also experience Lion’s Head’s fascinating geology, from Cape granite at the base to sandstone near the top.
Tea or coffee included on our morning sunrise hike.

Located between Table Mountain and Signal Hill, Lion’s Head rises above the city of Cape Town and forms part of Table Mountain National Park. This iconic peak offers the most rewarding sunrise hikes in the city. The hike begins in the early hours of the morning and requires the use of headlamps.The first section of the trail is easy to follow, though steep and gravelly in places. First twilight appears approximately 30 minutes before sunrise. By this time, we will have completed a full loop around Lion’s Head and reached the halfway point where the path diverges toward the summit. The final 30 minutes follow a rough narrow, steep ridge with rocky sections that require the use of your hands and fixed ladders. As the sun rises, the light transforms into a warm orange glow across Table Mountain and the surrounding landscape. At 669 meters above sea level, the summit of Lion’s Head rewards hikers with breathtaking 360-degree views. In full daylight, the ascent route becomes visible, revealing striking Cape granite and sandstone rock formations, as well as the unique indigenous flora known as Cape fynbos. The descent follows the same route and takes a minimum of 60 minutes to complete.
