The History of Table Mountain

Table Mountain in Cape Town has a fascinating history with many interesting people exploring her lofty heights via its famous cableway. We follow the history of the cable car, the story of Van Hunks, and more, as we hike up Platteklip Gorge.

Yeah, I don't think Queen Elizabeth 1 ever made it up there, seeing as she died before the arrival of the first Dutch settlers. Awesome video, though. Disappointed in myself that I lived in Cape Town for two years and only went up there once.

Ambitious title, considering Table Mountain is between 240 and 600 million years old
