Cableway Charity Challenge smashes its fund-raising target
May 15, 2025
|Atlantic Sun
The 16th edition of the Cableway Charity Challenge showed again that people love supporting a good cause while at the same time enjoying the natural beauty of Table Mountain.

The fund-raising target for this year was easily beaten, and more donations can still be pledged.
"It was our honour to host this incredible event that challenges athletes to do their best while raising funds for worthy beneficiaries. We thank the 188 athletes who took part in the Challenge on Sunday," said Selma Hercules, executive director for the Table Mountain Aerial Cableway Company (TMACC).
As in previous years, the event challenged participants to summit Table Mountain as many times as possible, between sunrise and sunset.
Runners and hikers made their way from the Lower Station up along Platteklip Gorge to the Upper Station, before enjoying a complimentary cable car ride to the bottom where it starts all over again.
The challenge was originally scheduled to take place on Saturday, but inclement weather forced it to be moved to Sunday.
