THURSDAY (3,5 hours: Devil's Peak 8km Out&back, 485m elevation):
Woodstock Cave is one of the largest
caves on Table Mountain. It's formed by a
long horizontal crack (50 metres wide by
fifteen metres deep and three or four
metres high at the entrance) halfway up
Devil's Peak that can clearly be seen from
Woodstock and Salt River. The walk is a
short series of zigzags along a path which
is rocky and uneven in sections.
