Table Mountain Aerial Cableway in Cape Town Central, South Africa
Table Mountain Aerial Cableway in Cape Town Central, South Africa
A visit to Cape Town would be incomplete without a trip up the famous Table Mountain which reaches a height of 1085 m at its highest point and had a broad flat surface allowing it to appear as a 'table' from certain angles, inspiring its name.
The glorious views over the Mother City starts the minute you step into the state of the art cableway (one of only three in the world). The floor of the 65 passenger cablecar rotates 360 degrees on the ascent/descent which takes 5-10 minutes to reach the summit/base travelling at a speed of up to 10m per second. Undeniably the best views over the Cape are to be taken in from this natural landmark mountain which allows all parts of Cape Town to be seen at once in all magnificence.
The mountain itself serves as a nature reserve home to many indigenous plants and animals. On the top there are a selection of viewpoints over the peninsula and the paths suitable for all ranges of the explorer from the handicapped to the avid hiker, maps are available on site. There is a curio shop and full cafe for refreshments and meals on the top. The weather can change without notice so be sure to have sunscreen and hats as well as warm clothing and of course remember to take your camera.
The Table Mountain Aerial Cableway is a cable car transportation system offering visitors a five-minute ride to the top of Table Mountain in Cape Town, South Africa. It is one of Cape Town's most popular tourist attractions with approximately 900,000 people a year using the Cableway. In February 2016, the Cableway welcomed its 25 millionth visitor.
The upper cable station is on the westernmost end of the Table Mountain plateau, at an elevation of 1,067 metres. The upper cable station offers views over Cape Town, Table Bay and Robben Island to the north, and the Atlantic seaboard to the west and south. Amenities at the upper station include free guided walking tours, an audio tour, meal options at a café and a wi-fi lounge.
The Rotair cableway was installed by Garaventa (Doppelmayr Garaventa Group) from Switzerland in 1997, the design being based on the Titlis Rotair cableway in Engelberg, Switzerland. Each car carries 65 passengers (compared to 25 for the old cars), and runs on a double cable making them more stable in high winds, giving a faster journey of 4–5 minutes to the summit. The floors of the cars rotate through 360 degrees during the ascent or descent, giving passengers a panoramic view.

Cape Town/Kaapstad/iKapa Table Mountain (South Africa)
(EN) Table Mountain (Afrikaans: Tafelberg) is a flat-topped mountain forming a prominent landmark overlooking the city of Cape Town in South Africa, and is featured in the Flag of Cape Town and other local government insignia.[2] It is a significant tourist attraction, with many visitors using the cableway or hiking to the top. The mountain forms part of the Table Mountain National Park. The view from the top of Table Mountain has been described as one of the most epic views in Africa.
(AF)Tafelberg is 'n berg in Suid-Afrika wat uitkyk bo-oor Kaapstad en sy omgewings. Dit het 'n kenmerkende plat bokant en is omtrent drie kilometer van punt tot punt.
As 'n mens suid oor die stad uitkyk na Tafelberg sien jy links (oos) die driehoekige Duiwelspiek (1 000 m) en regs die ronde Leeukop (669 m) en Seinheuwel. Dit is die noordelike punt van 'n reeks berge wat afstrek deur die lengte van die Kaapse Skiereiland. Die bokant word gereeld deur wolke bedek, bekend as die tafeldoek.
Die berg se hoogste punt is by Maclear se baken, en is 1 086 m (3 563 voet) bo seespieël. Hierdie punt is vernoem na die klipstapelbaken wat in 1865 deur Sir Thomas Maclear daar gebou is vir trigonometriese landmeting. Maclear se baken is nie veel van 'n piek nie — dit is die hoogste punt op die plato en slegs 19 m hoër as die kabelkar-stasie wat op 1 067 m is. 'n Berugte gevaarlike ligging is Carrel se lys, wat 'n ononderbroke val (aan die middel bo van die foto getoon) is, nie ver van Maclear se baken nie.
Tafelberg is ook in 'n unieke posisie deurdat dit die enigste aardskenmerk is wat sy naam aan 'n sterrebeeld ontleen: Mensa, wat die tafel beteken. Die berg word regop gesien in die Suidelike Halfrond, onder Orion, rondom middernag in middel Julie. Dit is vernoem deur die Franse sterrekundige Nicolas de Lacaille gedurende sy verblyf aan die Kaap in die middel 18de eeu.
(F) La montagne de la Table (en afrikaans : Tafelberg, en anglais : Table Mountain) est un massif de la province du Cap-Occidental en Afrique du Sud, qui surplombe la ville du Cap.
