Lion’s Head

Lion’s Head is a steep summit walk with changing views over the city, Table Mountain and the Atlantic coast. Allow enough daylight for the demanding return.

Lion’s Head

Why go

Choose this hike for the moving panorama rather than a single roadside view. The route demands more time and effort than Signal Hill, and conditions on exposed sections matter. Start with enough daylight for the return and follow current park advice on trail safety and closures.

What to look for

  • City and Atlantic views from successive slopes
  • Distinctive cone-shaped summit beside Table Mountain

Useful to know

  • Allow for the return hike in daylight.
  • Check SANParks trail and weather guidance before departure.
