There’s a surprise around every corner. Chasing waterfalls in Cape Town should be on your ‘adventure’ list.

Table Mountain is home to several vertical water spectacular shows, and with the recent rains, they are overflowing with beauty.

A few Instagrammers took the lead during the sunny weather to explore the cascading glory around the Mother City….

We’re still in this drought, but fantastic to see the water flowing down the mountain. #Skeletongorge #capetown #tablemountain #waterfalls #lightstalking #earthpix #500px #outdoors #nature #fugifilm #xt1 #hiking #igers #picoftheday #wanderlust #leaveonlyfootprints #adventure
