		Hiking on the Cape Peninsula! The last two days was no wind - today there was a light westerly wind, maybe enough for freestyling, but I decided to discover the area a bit. I went to Chapmans Peak Drive: the famous road between Hout Bay and Nordhoek which was closed for the last 3 years because of "mountain and road maintenance". Now they re-opened it and we went there to hike to the top: the Chapmans Peak. If you follow the Chapmans Peak Drive towards Nordhoek there is a parking bay on the right hand side. You can park there and follow the sign " Chapmans Peak walk". The hike takes about 1,5 and the view from the top is absolutely stunning: you can see the Cape Peninsula (Cape Point National Park), False Bay with the Indian Ozean, the long Beach of Nordhoek (Long Beach) and Hout Bay. After that you can drive to Nordhoek and enjoy a "Sundowner Drink" in the Red Herring, a nice place with views of long beach and the breaking waves. Tomorrow the wind might be back!!! Enjoy the new week! Steffi Wahl posted by Steffi Wahl at 2/15/2004 08:36:00 PM
