GRADE 3B, MEDIUM PACE
Part 3/12: Depending on the vote today, we'll ascend either Corridor or Oudekraal Ravine, conveniently popping out at Grootkop, the first of 2 peaks for the day. After enjoying the view on the top, we’ll make our way back to the Apostles path, continuing west towards Judas Peak, our second peak of the day. Our descent route will be either via Llandudno Ravine, or the Buttress, depending on the weather and the popular vote. This is a lovely hike on the Camps Bay side of the mountain with gorgeous views all round. We'll cover about 11kms with just over 800m elevation gain and loss. Car shuttling or Uber will be necessary.
About the 13 peaks: trail runner Ryan Sandes developed a circular route that covers 13 iconic peaks in Cape Town. We will complete the challenge over 7 months. All hikes are open to everyone, whether or not you are doing the challenge. Since not everyone will be available for every peak, Helen will set up a dedicated WhatsApp group for those doing the challenge to coordinate catch up hikes.
Please earmark the Saturday as an alternative hiking day in case of predicted poor weather on the Sunday.
Bookings open 2 months before the hike. Bookings close the Friday before the hike at 18h00. No smoking on the hike.
