Reflecting on the past summer season, the Table Mountain Aerial Cableway Company (TMACC) attributed this achievement to the allure of its pristine natural landscapes and the dedicated efforts of its team, as reported by IOL.
Wahida Parker, managing director of TMACC, says the mountain is open to visitors all year, adding that the site offers a myriad of activities and experiences tailored to the seasons, and that Capetonians are encouraged to ‘come out and play’ even though it is cold outside. ‘Off-season explorations are every bit as rewarding as summer summit sojourns, and, with fewer crowds and shorter queues, can be even more intimate.
‘Winter, too, has its own charm, with the mountain’s waterfalls at their most majestic and the opportunity to witness the rare sight of snow-capped peaks.’
