Cape Town: Several attractions & facilities in Table Mountain National Parks temporarily closed
South African National Parks (SANParks) has announced that due to the current severe weather conditions experienced across the Western Cape, coupled with heavy rain and strong winds throughout the Cape Town area, several attractions and facilities in the Table Mountain National Park have been temporarily closed.
Oudekraal, Newlands picnic site, Deer Park, Rhodes Memorial, and Lions Head trails are closed for safety reasons until further notice. The Cape of Good Hope (Cape Point) remains open, but the "The Flying Dutchman" funicular service is temporarily suspended due to high winds. Boulders Penguin Colony remains accessible for visitors.
SANParks urges all visitors to exercise extreme caution if planning to visit Table Mountain National Park and recommends to postpone the visit until conditions improve.
