TRANQUILLITY CRACKS hike explores the interesting rock slits on top of the Twelve Apostles
TRANQUILLITY CRACKS
This hike ascends the Twelve Apostles at the back of Table Mountain along Corridor Ravine, one of the more gradually ascending routes, but which offers majestic views of the Twelve Apostle Mountain Range dropping into the Atlantic Ocean, all the way to the top.
Once on top, we go on to discover the hidden gem of interlinking slits and rock fractures, called Tranquillity Cracks. We explore the labyrinth of corridors, passing ancient yellowwood trees to find some really interesting viewpoints across Camps Bay.
We carry on passing some magnificent ancient Tree Mimetes which have survived many mountain fires, we stop at the famous 'Diving board' rock formation for some picture perfect photo opportunities and head back down via the mountain via the Kasteelspoort trail.
