Set in one of the most stunning locations in Cape Town, this scenic tour combines fascinating facts about the human and natural history of Rhodes Memorial and the surrounding foothills of Devil’s Peak. This tour was created by students at Cedar House Prep School, as part of their school curriculum. Expect interesting insights into the life and legacy of the famous and controversial mining magnate, beautiful local plants and flowers, as well as spectacular views of the city, the mountain and the sea. After a thorough look at the imposing memorial, your route takes you just a bit of the way up the slopes of Devil’s Peak before winding its way along the mountainside on a gentle, downward track. On the return leg of this circular hike, you will get up close and personal with the wonderful indigenous Fynbos vegetation as a narrow footpath leads you back to the Memorial via a series of rolling hills.
