Cape Camino

Overview

Route 9: Peninsula Solo

Route 9, the Peninsula Solo Camino, is a self-guided multi-day walking route around the Cape Town Peninsula, following sections of mountain trails, coastal paths and village greenbelts without a full-time chaperone. This route allows experienced walkers to explore the natural and cultural landscapes of the Peninsula independently, while still benefiting from pre-arranged accommodation and structured route planning. Daily distances vary depending on the selected itinerary, typically ranging between 9km and 25km.

The Peninsula Solo route includes iconic landscapes such as Table Mountain, False Bay coastline, Chapman’s Peak and the southern Peninsula villages. Terrain includes forest paths, beach stretches, tar sections and mountain ascents, requiring a good level of walking fitness and confidence with navigation. Route 9 is ideal for independent pilgrims seeking flexibility, privacy and a self-paced Cape Town Camino experience, while remaining connected to the broader Cape Camino network.
