Walk from Constantia Nek to Kirstenbosch with Jo's Ladies Hiking Group

A lovely walk in beautiful weather, followed by scones at Kirstenbosch.

Table Mountain with Russell (Up via Constantia Nek and down into Camps Bay)

A very hot winter's day.  The highlight was a plunge into the icy dam.  And the amazing sunset at Camps Bay at the end of the day.








So refreshing!

A very bracing dunk in the water (one couldn't describe it as a swim!)


We explored some small caves in search of geocaches.


On the way down to Camps Bay.

Myburgh's Ravine


Account by Jo:
There is a photo taken by Russel of Graeme doing a leaping shot on Table Mountain 11 years ago that I absolutely love! Seeing as though G and R are both in Cape Town at the moment, we decided to try to find the rock on the hike from Myburgh's Waterfall Ravine to Suikerbossie. We started our (much more strenuous than I anticipated) hike from Houtbay, all the way up the Ravine, over the mountain to the 12 Apostles path and descended via Llandudno Ravine (think sheer exposure) to Suikerbossie. I am scratched from burnt shrubs, bruised from 2 falls but I made it to the rock for a half attempt at a jump (knee was too sore to go any higher). Will have to give it another bash in a year or so!!!
