Table Mountain National Park (TMNP) is going cash free at the Cape Point and Boulders gates from April 1.
The initiative is part of the broader cash-free South African National Parks programme started in 2021.
The two entry points at Table Mountain National Park will no longer accept cash as payment for conservation fee, otherwise known as gate entry fees. Visitors can pay with either a debit or credit card or purchase an online gate entry ticket prior to arrival from the SANParks website on www.sanparks.org/tickets.
Once payment has been made, the ticket will be sent to guests via email.
TMNP Park Manager Megan Taplin says: “I am delighted to see SANParks moving into the digital era and making gate entry available for purchase prior to arrival. I encourage people to purchase tickets before departing from home so that you can enjoy your visit to the park without the hassle of having to transact on arrival. We are moving away from cash and hope visitors will move online with us.”
