Wheelchair path
The friends work team finished the construction of the 500m long wheelchair path on the hill in the Tygerberg Hills nature reserve. The opening took place on Heritage Day 24 September 2008.
2019 path upgrading has been completed.
Hello
Enquiring about the wheelchair path…it starts at the top of the hill, how do I get to the top? Do we drive to the top and walk/wheel down? Or does it start by the hall and we walk/wheel up?
Thanks
