The plateau, flanked by Devils Peak to the east and by Lions Head to the west, forms a dramatic backdrop to Cape Town. This broad sweep of mountainous heights, together with Signal Hill, forms the natural amphitheater of the City Bowland Table Bay harbour. It is 1,086 meters (3,563ft) above sea level, and about 19 meters (62ft) higher than the cable station at the western end of the plateau.
