I have been to Cape Town several times now and as much as I love the beaches, the wine lands, the gardens, the cafes and the culture, when I brought my family to Cape Town there was only one thing I insisted that they had to do: climb Lion's Head.
The day we chose to hike Lion's Head was quite blustery. And even more foggy. In fact, the fog was so thick along the walk that there were times when it was hard to see more than five meters ahead. But my brothers and I were undeterred and we scampered all over the mountain.
Our favorite part was definitely the rock climbing section. But I also really enjoyed being engulfed by the clouds. It was a creepy yet cool feeling.

My brothers and I made it to the top just as the weather began to clear up.
And this is why Lion's Head is my favorite part of Cape Town: the views are always breath-taking!
Hiking Lion's Head with my brothers was great. We took a ton of goofy pictures, talked about life sang Disney songs and actually bonded. I'm pretty sure my brothers would agree with me - hiking Lion's Head is the best way to do Cape Town.
