Le Pouce Ascent Trail

Highlight • Trail

Due to the high humidity and the many small streams, even though it hadn't rained, it was always wet and slippery. Only enter with sturdy, mountain-friendly footwear.

Highlight • Viewpoint

Beautiful vantage point with a lawn for a break or a destination for anyone who doesn't quite dare to reach the summit.

I thought I'd do something more than just laze around on the beach, swimming, or snorkeling. So, today I decided to head up high 🤠 . . and it's best to do it in the midday sun 😅

Not recommended in a flimsy pair of pumps but worth getting to to top

November 1, 2023,Mauritius - Wanderung auf den 🇲🇺 "Le Pouce"

Short but nice and warm at just under 30 degrees. The view of the island's most important mountains is gigantic. The pictures hardly reflect it. We weren't at the top, it was too warm and rain was coming. We turned back at the right time.
