Cape Town - There are doubts whether the man arrested in connection with the Table Mountain fire was responsible for the blaze that ravaged about 650 hectares and damaged several buildings last week.
Two independent investigations are under way into the fire that started on the slopes of Table Mountain on April 18, according to Forestry, Fisheries and Environment Minister Barbara Creecy.
Creecy visited the Working on Fire Newlands base on Saturday for a briefing by South African National Parks and to assess the overall damage. Creecy also took the opportunity to thank firefighters for their efforts in extinguishing the blaze.
SANParks said while the Newlands Forest area would reopen, other affected areas remain closed to the public.
The fire, which started on Sunday morning, has destroyed around 650 hectares of the park.
Newlands Forest will reopen to the public on Saturday, almost a week after a wildfire swept across Table Mountain National Park (TMNP).
Paths that will be reopened to the public include; Newlands Forest, Devils Peak towards Platteklip footpath, Molteno jeep track towards Kloofnek, Atlantic Seaboard (Camps Bay, Kasteelspoort etc), Constantia Nek, Lions Head, Signal Hill, and Cecilia Forest.
According to TMNP Park Manager, Frans van Rooyen, permitted recreational activities in the reopened areas mentioned above will continue as before, including hiking and dog walking with visitors, . kindly requested to remain on demarcated footpaths and to be mindful of rules pertaining to keeping dogs under control .
