1. Le Morne Hiking & Le Morne Beach.

Starting the day with one of the most iconic hikes in Mauritius. Le Morne Brabant Mountain must be in the bucket list of everyone who is visiting Mauritius.

Le Morne has been rewarded as UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2008 being a symbol of the slaves’ fight for freedom. The hike is a 3.5 kilometre hike trail taking around 3 to 4 hours (depending of the hikers experience and condition).

You should start the Hiking early in the morning to avoid high temperatures during the hike. The recommended start hour should be around 8:00 am.

The hike to the top should take you around 1.5/2 hours length. When you will arrive to the top of the mountain you will be rewarded with the most amazing views of the south-west coast. It is recommended to rest and enjoy a little snack on the top to recharge your body battery and been able to finish the trail in the best condition!

After finishing the hike, the next spot will be the famous beach of Le Morne, located at the foot of the majestic Mountain we had already climb! At Le Morne beach, you can do some interesting aquatic sports such as snorkelling, stand up paddle or kayak. If you are a kite surfing or windsurf lover you will find the famous Lagoon next to the beach perfect to practice this sports!
