On Saturday 12 Feb 2022, I will be leading a hike up to see the Disas on Table Mountain via the dams.

We will be meeting at 06h00, at the parking at the top of Constantia Neck, by the traffic circle.
and will begin the hike by 06h30 at the latest, hopefully earlier.

The hike is on mostly paved roadway used by the water services dept to inspect the dams (they drive their bakkies up there).

It is an easy walk, but not a short walk.
We will be stopping often to rest and catch our breath.  It won't be a race.

If we leave by 06h30, we'll be back by 13h00 at the latest. Depends on how long we stay at the dam.

Do bring swimming gear.
Do bring water to drink. very important
Do bring sunscreen and a hat to protect you from the sun.
Do wear decent shoes.  (Any running-type shoes should be fine. but... I wore canvas sneakers last week and really suffered, as they have almost no padding.)

Don't bring things that will disturb the sounds of nature (speakers, etc)

If you're interested in checking out what kind of plants you'll see:

The trail is about 5km each way.  Expect a total distance around 12km. (but broken up into manageable chunks).


Feel free to invite others too.
