Route
A straight forward out and back run along the scenic trail across the North Face of Table Mountain to Devil's Peak or a little further (Oppelskop path) and return.
Terrain and DistanceA good fairly steep climb up to the upper contour path below Kloof Corner ridge then along the undulating single mountain contour trail which runs across the North face overlooking the City. As opposed to returning via the boring tar road we turn back at Block house ridge and retrace our steps back to above the lower cableway station then descend down to Tafelberg Rd and follow it back to Kloof Nek.
Once up on the contour path there are a few modest gradients and most of it is along a single gravel and rocky trail with occasional precipitous short stretches but the route is easy to follow. Distance about 12-14 kms taking more or less about 2hrs 30m
