Activity Overview
Embark on a guided hike up Le Morne Brabant, one of Mauritius’ most iconic mountains. The trail takes you through a lush forest before reaching rocky slopes and stunning viewpoints overlooking the lagoon. Along the way, your guide will share stories about the site’s cultural and historical significance. At the summit, you’ll be rewarded with spectacular views of the island’s southwest coast. Some sections of the hike require the use of hands on steep (60degree slope) sections for stability, with close contact with the rock face as you ascend towards the summit. Good physical condition is essential, as the trail involves steep inclines and uneven terrain. Participants should not have pre-existing knee, arm, or balance issues that could be aggravated by scrambling or prolonged exertion.
