Table Mountain
Table Mountain, the renowned and iconic landmark of South Africa is hikers’ paradise with innumerable trails, astounding views and various mesmerising facts to know about. Table Mountain is a flat-topped mountain encircled by breathtaking cliffs. The levelled plateau is edged by Devil’s Peak to the east any by Lions Head to the west. The wide spectrum of mountainous heights, along with Signal Hill, builds the natural amphitheatre for the City Bowl and Table Bay harbor. The orographic clouds often cover the flat top of the mountain and moisture condenses to form cloudy ‘table-cloth’ for the table mountain. The mountain is world widely known for its unique bio-diversity and flora and fauna. At Table Mountain , you can enjoy wonderful view of the Rock Hyrax (Dassie) running along the rocks, lizards sunning, butterflies fleeting past and you can also have chance to watch large Verreaux Eagles and small colourful sunbirds. And all these creatures reside in Fynbos; a plant species which occurs nowhere else at the planet.
