Chapmans Peak Drive - Tumblr Posts
Der Chapman’s Peak Drive ist eine neun Kilometer lange Küstenstraße auf der Kap-Halbinsel südlich von Kapstadt. Er schlängelt sich in 114 Kurven unmittelbar zwischen Meer und steilen Felswänden entlang von Hout Bay nach Noordhoek und führt über den Chapman’s Peak, einen 160 Meter hoch gelegenen Aussichtspunkt. Touristen und Einheimische halten häufig an den Aussichtspunkten entlang dieser Straße an, die einen spektakulären Blick auf die Hout Bay, den Sentinel Peak und die Umgebung sowie auf die unberührten Sandkilometer am Noordhoek Beach bieten. Autohersteller aus aller Welt drehen hier gerne ihre Werbespots.
Chapman's Peak is the name of a mountain on the western side of the Cape Peninsula, between Hout Bay and Noordhoek in Cape Town, South Africa. The western flank of the mountain falls sharply for hundreds of metres into the Atlantic Ocean, and a spectacular road, known as Chapman's Peak Drive, hugs the near-vertical face of the mountain, linking Hout Bay to Noordhoek. Tourists and locals alike often stop at viewpoints along this road, which offer spectacular views of Hout Bay, The Sentinel Peak and surrounds, as well as over the pristine kilometres of sand at Noordhoek Beach. Car companies from all over the world like to shoot their commercials here.

Adjacent to the Historic site above Chapman’s Peak Drive is the old forester’s cottage which was constructed when Chapman’s Peak’s lower reaches were planted with Pines (Pinus Rediata) early in the 20th Century. Situated at the foot of Hangberg, off, 1 Chapmans Peak Dr, Hout Bay Harbour, Cape Town, 7806, South Africa. A result of the 2000 fire - building was totally destroyed. The House was a valuable asset to the site and could have underpinned the sensitive development of the site. However, although worthy of recognition as a listed heritage building, it is State owned and not in any way insured, thus it has been left as a total loss and a ruin.
------------------
Angrenzend an die historische Stätte oberhalb des Chapman's Peak Drive befindet sich das alte Forsthaus, das gebaut wurde, als der Unterlauf des Chapman's Peak Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts mit Kiefern (Pinus Rediata) bepflanzt wurde. Gelegen am Fuße des Hangbergs, 1 Chapmans Peak Dr, Hout Bay Harbour, Kapstadt, 7806, Südafrika. Infolge des Brandes im Jahr 2000 wurde das Gebäude vollständig zerstört. Das Haus war eine wertvolle Bereicherung für den Standort und hätte die sensible Entwicklung des Standorts untermauern können. Es sollte als denkmalgeschütztes Gebäude anerkannt werden, allerdings befindet es sich in staatlichem Besitz und ist in keiner Weise versichert, sodass es als vollkommen zerstörte Ruine zurückgelassen wurde.
