Although the Protea can be seen in a variety of places my favourate walk on Table Mountain to view them is Nursery Ravine. This is the steep gorge that rises above Kirstenbosch gardens. After ascending through some magnificent forest,  at around 400m  you emerge into the open. Here a large rock marks the half way point and a stop to look at the view is highly recommended. Looking up the zig zag path as it continues up the slope you cannot miss the proteas that literally litter the slopes for the rest of the ascent.
