The Centenary Tree Canopy Walkway is an enchanted treetop walkway that takes you on a twisting and curving journey through Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden. Made with curved steel and wood, the walkway was inspired by a snake's skeleton. Specifically, a 'Boomslang' tree snake. It's a low-impact walk that takes you on an aerial tour above the treetop canopy, with a breathtaking 360 degree vistas of the mountains, Garden and Cape Flats. It's also wheelchair-accessible.

A beautiful place and right in the center of cape town. During the summer months, they have a concert series that is not very expensive and brings in killer acts. Perfect place to celebrate life, hear good music and be part of nature.
