Hiking Chapman’s Peak

Exploring undiscovered beauty with Hi-Tec above Cape Town’s most famous road

'You have to do Chappies' is a common thing people will tell you when you’re here to discover the Cape. 'Chappies', local slang for Chapman’s Peak Drive, is one of Cape Town‘s most famous landmarks (about 25km south of the Cape Town CBD). Nine kilometres and 114 curves of breathtaking scenery bring you from Noordhoek to Hout Bay, or the other way around. Some say it’s one of the most spectacular marine drives in the world.

Hike above Chapman’s Peak for amazing views of the Atlantic Ocean, Hout Bay, Fish Hoek, Gordon’s Bay and a stunning mountain range, the southerly extension of the Constantia Berg (593m high) to be exact. Chapman’s Peak must be one of the least hiked peaks on the Table Mountain chain. I even call Chappies 'paradise' and a hike will provide you with even better views
