Noordhoek Common

About Noordhoek Common

Noordhoek Common is a breathtakingly beautiful public park and natural oasis that functions as the true green heart of the Noordhoek valley. Fenced by ancient, shady oak trees and spectacular views of the Chapman’s Peak mountain range, this wide-open community space offers a peaceful escape with quiet streams running through its fields. It is exceptionally popular for relaxed family picnics, flying kites, playing casual lawn cricket, and walking dogs. A magical highlight for visitors travelling with young children is searching for the tiny, hand-crafted "fairy houses" and miniature doors tucked secretively into the tree trunks near the pathways. It perfectly showcases Cape Town's rural country charm while being right around the corner from excellent local dining and artisan shops.
