It's an easy walk with a lovely view of Camps Bay, Lion's Head, and you'll see a fair amount of pipes along the way. There isn't a lot of shade so bring a hat and wear sunscreen. The path is rarely busy so you'll be avoiding the crowds that you'll find on the more popular spots.

Amazing walk. This is the best trail for beginners or people who may not be able to climb steep paths, but still enjoy the beauty of walks around table mountain. It's relatively flat, but not circular. So you need to calculate your time and return the same way. There is an exit on the other side in camps bay but it's a long walk. There are multiple paths leading up to the top of table mountain which start here. Be careful after rains, as the path is muddy and gets slippery. Also to note that the path is extremely narrow at some points. The pipe track follows an old iron pipe which used to supply water to cape town once upon a time. That pipe still carries water but not sure of the purpose.

Amazing path all along the edge of the mountain on the Camps Bay side. Not too strenuous and not dangerous at all insofar as ledges and cliffs and exposures are concerned. Many people walk their dogs along this path. Some runners also likes this route, and of course plenty of hikers. It is however advisable to be in a group even though I've never came across anyone with ill intent along this trail, it is just safer when you have numbers on your side.

The Pipe Trail offers stunning views of Camps Bay, Clifton, Maiden's Beach, and of course, Table Mountain itself. The trail is an easy walk, but it can be dangerous in some areas, so it's important to wear appropriate footwear and be extra cautious if you're bringing kids along.While there are no toilets or water sources along the way, the scenery is worth the trek. You'll encounter a variety of plants along the trail, and there are some interesting landmarks to look out for.If you're up for a more challenging hike, you can reach the point where there is a sign-post showing you which direction to take. This part of the trail is suitable for seasoned hikers, but may be difficult for non-hikers. It can take up to 3 hours to complete the hike, depending on your fitness level.Overall, the Pipe Trail is a must-see for anyone visiting Table Mountain National Park. Just make sure to wear comfortable shoes and be extra careful in areas that may be dangerous. The starting point can be found at the road to TM, and the walk takes about 2 hours at a normal pace, including time for pictures and taking in the views

This is a very nice trail to walk. Not a lot of uphill at the beginning. Nice views along the way. Plenty of stones to walk over so wear comfortable non slip shoes. Some narrow roads. You will enjoying walking this trail.

The trail is well kept and there are usually a couple of people on it, which makes it feel pretty safe.The accessibility is also a big plus, with parking right at the begging, and no doesn’t roads getting to the parking it makes it easy to recommend to most for a short afternoon walk.For the most part it is nearly flat with no really big inclines or declines which make it easy for almost anyone to enjoy.The views of Camps Bay and Lion’s head are fantastic. It’s also quite western-facing which makes it ideal for watching the sun set.

We parked here and caught the bus to the top of the mountain and the bus was free and our car was safe.

A good, interesting hike, a little more than a walk in the park. Really fun with good views. A few inclines but nothing too hectic.
