There is nothing quite like a walk on the mountain after work to remind one of how beautiful Cape Town is. The Kloof Corner circuit is one that I used to do in around 26 minutes, Up to Kloof Corner from Tafelberg road, along the contour path, and down under the Cable car.
Well its a good deal slower than that now, but it has been a while. This trip also involved making a pano looking out from the beacon and another stop to photograph the cable cars. Not to mention the young British tourist who with a point and shoot camera in hand asked if this was the way to the top of the mountain. Oh dear. The cable cars had just been closed because of high wind speeds at the top. Spot the problem.
The Cable cars make their last run before being closed because of high wind speed on the top of the mountain.
