Climbing the highest mountain in Mauritius is of course a must. However, you should make sure that you allow enough time for the path to dry after a rainy period, otherwise you will sink into the mud and morass. The final ascent to the summit is equipped with a few ropes at the edge, which can be put to good use due to the partially slippery surface. Especially on the descent, this part can be a bit difficult, also because of the steepness and exposure.

Great view over the southern part of the island.
Start early because of the heat.
Surefootedness required (upper part with safety ring); Walking boots!
