About Cape Peninsula University of Technology (District Six Campus)

Cape Peninsula University of Technology (District Six Campus) is a university campus in the City Bowl, the amphitheatre of flats and Victorian shopfronts wedged between Table Mountain, Devil's Peak, Signal Hill and the harbour. The campus sits within a district where the CBD grid, Bo-Kaap on the Signal Hill slope, and the residential shoulders of Gardens, Tamboerskloof, Oranjezicht and Vredehoek meet. It is the only part of Cape Town where you can genuinely live without a car for a week: the cableway, the museums, three markets and about two hundred restaurants sit within a thirty-minute walk of each other, and the mountain is always there to tell you which way is south. Visitors come for the university's central location, with easy access to Long and Bree Street, Bo-Kaap, Company's Garden and Table Mountain looming over every intersection. The trailhead for Signal Hill is at the Signal Hill Road turn-off on Kloof Nek, roughly 45 minutes to the top spiralling anticlockwise. Full-moon nights bring hundreds of people with head torches; go at dawn instead if you want it quiet.

Tips for staying near Cape Peninsula University of Technology (District Six Campus)

  • Full-moon nights bring hundreds of people with head torches to the Signal Hill trailhead; go at dawn instead if you want it quiet.
  • This is a lived-in Cape Malay neighbourhood, not a photo set: ask before shooting doorways in Bo-Kaap.
  • Start at the Bo-Kaap Museum on Wale Street, about R60 entry, then Chiappini and Rose Street for the painted facades.
  • Buy koesisters or a samosa at Rose Corner Cafe on the corner of Rose and Longmarket.
  • Never leave anything in the car at the trailhead on Signal Hill Road.
