Next time you’re at the top of Table Mountain, take a peek through the upper reaches of Platteklip Gorge. You’ll be met by a vision of Cape Town and the Atlantic Ocean spread out below you, and perfect skies above. Photo courtesy Funanbolo.

As the seasons turn in Cape Town, so sunset starts later and later. Pretty soon, our days will be longer than our nights, and that means more time to enjoy the outdoors, extended Cableway hours and, of course, the start of our wildly popular Sunset Special promotion (but you’ll have to wait until November for that one). In the meantime, here are some sunset teasers to get you in the mood.

It is so much fun keeping track of the colourful flowers that are slowly but surely rearing their heads on Table Mountain. Spring is here and the arrival of warmer weather is marking the arrival of gorgeous hues and smells.

Oh, how we love the onset of spring. The sky is clear, the air is crisp, and everyone has a smile on their dial. Great conditions for a trip to the top! Photo courtesy StewieD.

The Western Cape is bursting at the seams with wonderful yellow blossoms. Doesn’t Table Mountain make the perfect backdrop? Of course, there’s plenty of yellow on Table Mountain, too ... Photo courtesy Zodiakk.

Looking down from the top of Table Mountain, you get to spy on all the trendy homes in über-cool Camps Bay. One can dream, right? Photo courtesy c8132.

Julian Knutzen is the top contributor for the official Table Mountain Cableway Flickr group. Hailing from Germany, Julian has submitted 42 gorgeous images of Table Mountain to our group. He was kind enough to share some of his favourite shots, as well as his commentary, with us.

Table Mountain is slowly but surely transforming into a kaleidoscope of colour as wild flowers, big and small, begin to bloom. Spring officially starts in September but we managed to track down specimens that have started flowering this month. Here are some gorgeous images to help you identify the beautiful purple blossoms.
