© CAPE TOWN ROUTES UNLIMITEDable Mountain is one of South Africa's most famous natural landmarks, rising flat-topped above Cape Town and overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. Part of Table Mountain National Park, it is over 260 million years old, making it one of the oldest mountains in the world, and is renowned for its rich biodiversity within the Cape Floral Kingdom, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Visitors can enjoy its dramatic cliffs, panoramic views, hiking trails, and the iconic Table Mountain Aerial Cableway, which carries millions of people to the summit each year. Often capped by a blanket of cloud known locally as the "tablecloth," Table Mountain is both a powerful symbol of Cape Town and a major attraction for tourism, outdoor recreation, and conservation.
