Front (North)

Table Mountain from Devils Peak to Lions Head

The north side of Table Mountain (TM) has three main sections: Devils Peak, the front face of TM itself and Lions Head. The front face is further split into the face above the saddle connecting to devil's peak, and the front face proper which is split by Platteklip Gorge into Left Face and Right Face. All have interesting walks and scrambles, although the face above the saddle specifically features only more advanced routes. 

Lions Head is the shortest and easiest while the front face offers some spectacular 4-star routes in the "must-do-at-least-once-in-a-lifetime" category.

The front face is host to 100s of difficult rock climbing routes, which are not described on Mountain Meanders but many of which can be found here.

These routes exist alongside the easiest way up the mountain, Platteklip Gorge, so there is also always an easy way down.  A climb up and the cable car down is a popular option but watch the wind and always be prepared to walk down!
