Itinerary description

This trail takes in the best of the Eastern side of Table Mountain itself, from open wide trails to technical single track, crossing lots of streams.

The track takes an undulating route along the Contour Path, above Constantia, up a hard uphill above Kirstenbosch, and to the Newlands Ravine intersection. The trail then descends via a very steep technical downhill single track to the end at the Newlands Forestry Station.
