Hiking in the South offers a curated collection of trails in the South Peninsula of Cape Town, complete with links to route maps for easy navigation. Based around Kalk Bay and St James, the range extends from Cape Point to Newlands Forest, incorporating exhilirating hikes in Fish Hoek Silvermine, Noordhoek, Hout Bay, Constantia, and Kirstenbosch.
Hikes have been graded from easy to moderately strenuous, based on distance and elevation. Each trail includes concise route notes and direct links to maps on the popular AllTrails App. Selected for their unique challenges and scenic beauty, trails such as the adventurous Elsies Peak Climbing Traverse and Klein Tuinkop via Dassieskasteel involve some exciting scrambling. In contrast, hikes like the picturesque Chapmans Peak from Noordhoek Beach and the stunning route to Kalk Bay Peak from Ou Kraal offer spectacular views of the ocean and mountains.
