The free entry applies from Saturday, 23 September 2023 to the close of business on Monday, 25 September 2023. Activity costs at the nature reserves will remain as per normal.

'Cape Town's unique biodiversity is integral to our natural heritage, and at our nature reserves residents can fully enjoy and appreciate the beauty of our scenic surroundings. From the smallest animal, to birds, flowers and insects are on display when you slow down and take a closer look. Go, take a relaxing walk, or have a picnic, and celebrate Heritage Day Cape Town style, hopefully the weather will play along this weekend,' said the City's Deputy Mayor and Mayoral Committee Member for Spatial Planning and Environment, Alderman Eddie Andrews.

The nature reserves serve to protect and conserve natural areas and biodiversity, and offer recreational and educational activities.
