The Table Mountain Cableway will be closed from July 27 to August 9 for its annual maintenance. Hiking routes will remain open during this period but facilities at the summit and both cable stations will be closed.
The temporary closure allows for inspections, testing and maintenance work to ensure the cableway continues to meet international safety standards. All facilities and commercial operations at the upper and lower stations will be closed. This includes food and beverage outlets, retail stores and ablution facilities.
As no cable car services will operate during this period, hikers will need to descend on foot and are advised to carry sufficient water, snacks, warm clothing and appropriate hiking gear.
