Surrounded by the rugged beauty of the Twelve Apostles and overlooking the azure expanse of the Atlantic, hikers are quickly immersed in the natural grandeur that characterises this side of Table Mountain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>As hikers ascend, the Diagonal Hike unfolds like a geological tapestry, showcasing the unique formations that define <a href=\"https:\/\/capetrek.co.za\/table-mountain-hikes\/\">Table Mountain hikes<\/a>. The sandstone cliffs of the Twelve Apostles reveal layers of sedimentary rock, shaped by the forces of time, wind, and water. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>This includes the sublime Diagonal Cave which can be found about one third of the way up.

Your fitness will most certainly be put to the test on this section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>After about 400 metres of ascending in the ravine, one moves right and traverses two incredible buttresses, thereafter moving up and topping out. At this point we usually turn right and walk along the top of the mountain and descend via Kasteelspoort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The other option is to turn left and walk through the Valley of the Gods and across to the Cable Way.
