Table Mountain (1087m/3566ft), the flat-topped hill to the south of the city center, is the great landmark and emblem of Cape Town. Its summit plateau is frequently covered by a layer of clouds, the "tablecloth". Since weather conditions here are very changeable it is advisable to arrange your trip to the summit, either on foot or by road, immediately you see it clear of clouds. The ascent is rewarded by an immense prospect of Cape Town and the Cape Peninsula. At weekends Table Mountain is floodlit after dark. The best view, and the best place from which to take a photograph, is from the road up Signal Hill.
Table Mountain, built up from massive beds of sandstones and slates, forms the northern end of the Cape Peninsula
