Chapman's Peak Scenic Drive
1 Chapmans Peak Drive, Hout Bay Harbour, Cape Town, 7806, South Africa Phone: +27 21 791 8220About
Chapman's Peak Drive winds its way between Noordhoek and Hout Bay on the Atlantic Coast on the south-western tip of South Africa. Chapman's Peak Drive is one of the most spectacular marine drives in the world. The 9km route, with its 114 curves, skirts the rocky coastline of Chapman's Peak (593m), which is the southerly extension of Constantiaberg and is a great hike for the energetically inclined. Chapman's Peak Drive is affectionately known as "Chappies" and is a must for anyone who is passionate about the majestic Cape Town scenery, with sheer drops to the sea below and towering mountains rising above you. The twists and curves in the road seem endless and it is a photographers dream. It is a paradise for motorists, sightseers, picnickers, runners, hikers and bikers (both the motorised and the manual varieties).
