Cecilia Forest lies on the slopes between
Constantia Nek and the
southern boundary of Kirstenbosch.
The trees are a mixture of pine plantation and indegenous species.
There are many walks in the area. There are fine views of the
suburbs of Cape Town, and the southern slopes of Table Mountain
Update: pines are being removed from the upper slopes, to allow fynbos regrowth.
