There are many beautiful things in the areas around Cape Town. The natural areas around the city are known for their beauty. If you enjoy a good look at nature’s splendor, then you’ll be quite happy with the many locations that are surprisingly close to Cape Town hotels.
The best known location would probably be Table Mountain. This is a beautiful area that’s within driving distance of Cape Town. The entire area makes up Table Mountain National Park. This scenic area is perfect for the naturalist in us all. The mountain is perfectly climbable for the more rugged people. Table Mountain has a number of trails for climbing. The view at the top is particularly gorgeous. The less athletic can just take a calm and easy cable car ride to the top.
Signal hill is another possible location. It also has trails for hiking and even a road all the way to the top. It’s a bit closer to the sea, but lacks a little of the splendor of Table Mountain. It is definitely worth the effort to most tourists though.
The part that is truly great about these mountains is their relative proximity to the city. You can take in these natural beauties and then take a relatively short drive back to the relaxation of your Cape Town accommodation. The best of both worlds.
