East Fort - Chapman’s Peak
~ CPT HIDDEN GEM #30 ~
Even when I’m not our traveling and writing about South Africa, I still get to explore and discover new sights on my doorstep! After passing the fort ruins along Chapman’s Peak I decided to stop for the first time. There are four forts that were built around 1780-1800 to protect Hout Bay - one of Cape Town’s more vulnerable access points. In 1795 the East Fort (pictured above) managed to stop the British from entering Hout Bay. The deterrence didn’t last long as they merely moved to Table Bay from where they took control of the Cape for the first time.
You can visit the sites from the road that approaches the Hout Bay end of Chapman’s Peak and capture some unique views of the town through the windows. Pictured here is a view of the Sentinel - a peak also well worth climbing for some outstanding views.

In a few weeks I will be in #namibia , for another amazing adventure in #africa . I am really looking forward to be in #etoshanationalpark . While waiting, I am editing some pictures of a trip in #southafrica I did a few years ago. What an amazing experience. The majesty of these big elephants was really impressive! Here one of my favourite shoot of that trip.

"The colour version of what remains the most majestic lion I’ve ever laid eyes on. When we pulled up to him laying on a termite mound there were gasps as this lion literally took our breaths away.
.
He overlooked his territory from here as the sunlight turned golden, and as it started cooling down he let the most powerful of roars rip from deep within his belly.
.
He is the Black Dam male of the Giraffe Pride, and he is the real deal."
