Parks & Nature
Signal Hill, which connects Kloof Nek to Lion’s Head, in the distinctive shape of a lion’s rump, is one of the most famous spots in Cape Town for sundowners. Views from the 350m high summit are nothing short of spectacular, particularly at night, and picnic dinners with accompanying drinks is something of a capital pastime - pack a picnic, bottle of wine and blanket, take a drive up and enjoy some of the most beautiful sunsets over the Atlantic Sea Board
