The
City of Cape Town has announced that starting 01 February 2025, five of its Nature Reserves will transition to cashless payment systems at their gates. Visitors will be able to use all major digital cards (credit and debit cards), including the convenient tap-to-pay contactless payment option.
"This decision has been made to enhance the safety and security of both staff and visitors by eliminating cash handling at the reserves. It aligns with global biodiversity tourism trends, such as those implemented at Cape Point," said Alderman Eddie Andrews, Cape Town’s Deputy Mayor and Mayoral Committee Member for Spatial Planning and Environment.
The five Nature Reserves in
Cape Town introducing cashless payments include:
- Witzands Aquifer Nature Reserve (general admission remains free for permitted activities)
- Tygerberg Nature Reserve
- Table Bay Nature Reserve
- Helderberg Nature Reserve
- Blaauwberg Nature Reserve
Entrance fees range between R15 and R28, while residents enjoy free access to other City-managed Nature Reserves across
Cape Town.
