An easy hike to one of Cape Town's most beautiful view points. It will take you an hour to get up and another hour to get down. If you plan to go up Lions Head during the full moon (highly recommended) be sure to take a torch - it may take you a bit longer to get up and down due to the amount of people hiking during the full moon.
