Understanding the Cape Fold Belt, A Series of Mountains Between The Escarpment And The Sea

The Cape Fold Belt is a 1,300-kilometer (810 mi) long fold-and-thrust mountain chain that runs along the western and southern coastlines of South Africa's Western and Eastern Cape provinces between the escarpment and the sea, almost as if some ancient forces scrunched up the land to form folds. Highest Peak: Seweweekspoortpiek reaches a maximum height of 2,325 meters (7,628 ft) Famous Landmarks: Iconic features like Table Mountain, the Cederberg, the Outeniqua, the Langeberg and the Swartberg ranges are part of this majestic belt. #capefoldbelt #escarpment #tablemountain #langeberg #swartberg #outeniqua #westerncape #easterncape #capefoldbelt #escarpment #tablemountain #langeberg #swartberg #outeniqua #westerncape #easterncape #southafrica
