If you\u2019re in hot pursuit of an adrenaline adventure holiday in nature, then a zipline canopy tour in the company of soaring eagles, surrounded by Cape fynbos and breathtaking panoramas and mountainscapes could well be exactly what you are looking for.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Described by Lonely Planet<\/em> as \u201cvertigo-tinged fun\u201d<\/em> and \u201can exciting aerial perspective\u201d <\/em>Cape Canopy Tour<\/strong> located near Grabouw in the Elgin Valley of the Hottentots Holland Nature Reserve offers guests the chance to enjoy breathtaking views of a previously inaccessible part of this pristine World Heritage Site and the opportunity to test their limits by ziplining high up in the mountains,1 000m above sea level.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This adventure activity ticks all the boxes. From an exhilarating 4 x 4 journey through the nature reserve to soaring through the air on 11 thrilling slides – some more than 300m long with ziplines ending on a platform on the cliffs of fynbos-covered mountain slopes above the Riviersonderend Gorge; and getting to see one of the unforgettable highlights of the tour – a unique suspension bridge constructed between a narrow sandstone ravine, above a spectacular double waterfall.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A fully guided, adventure activity for nature enthusiasts between the ages of 5 to 75 with a reasonable level of fitness the tour lasts between 4 to 5 hours, costs R995 per person and includes, all equipment and training, a return 4×4 experience through the reserve from the base up into the mountains, the zipline adventure along 13 elevated platforms, with two fully trained Cape Canopy Tour Guides. A maximum of 8 to nine people per trip, so it\u2019s great for a bunch of friends, particularly if you\u2019re going to be in Cape Town this December, as it\u2019s just an hour or so drive out.<\/p>\n
