The entrance fee for the main vehicle boardwalk along Chapman’s Peak Drive is a toll, typically paid at the entrance, rather than a separate fee for walking the boardwalk itself[3].
As of the latest available data, the toll fee for Chapman’s Peak Drive is R54 per vehicle (exact rates may vary depending on vehicle type and current tariffs)[1]. This fee is charged to use the entire scenic route between Hout Bay and Noordhoek, which includes access to the major viewpoints and boardwalk areas.
If you are only wanting to use the picnic sites, viewing points, or hiking trails near the Hout Bay entrance, you can request a free Day Pass (Picnic Voucher). The Day Pass allows you to access the first 2.7 km of the drive and use designated picnic and trail areas up to the Day Pass Control Unit. The Day Pass is only available from the Hout Bay side and within specific hours (typically 06:00–20:00 in summer and 07:00–18:30 in winter)[2].
If you go beyond the Day Pass Control Point or do not have the pass on return, you will be charged the full toll fee[2].
There is no separate ticket or entrance fee to access the general pedestrian areas or boardwalk apart from these official road and area charges.
