With a negligible amount of effort, this remarkable circuit will present you with magnificent vistas, glorious fynbos and leave you with a sense of wonder that only walking in Cape Town can offer. Forming part of the Table Mountain National Park, this stunning route is located in the northern section of the Silvermine Nature Reserve. It hugs the top of the ridge that forms the walls of the ‘amphitheatre’ that contains the Silvermine Reservoir built in 1898 to supply water to Cape Town. A modest fee is payable at the entrance gate at the top of Ou Kaapse Weg. The walk starts at the parking area just before the reservoir.
