What can you see from Table Mountain?
360° terrain visibility analysis from Table Mountain — observation point at 1,086 m, coordinates -33.9619, 18.4094.
From Table Mountain, the terrain-limited line of sight reaches up to 201 km. The single farthest piece of visible terrain lies 201 km to the north-northeast (bearing 18°), at 1,711 m elevation. These results account for Earth's curvature and standard atmospheric refraction, computed from 30-meter resolution Copernicus GLO-30 elevation data across 1,813,633 terrain samples.
