View of Mafate from Sentier du Grand Bord

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

A breathtaking view of the crater. However, on most days you have to be on site very early because fog and clouds form from the late morning hours. Still worth a detour.

Superb, but remember to go early, plan 2 hours of walking and therefore leave before 10 a.m., pay attention to the probable driving time to get to the starting point

View of the Cirque from Route de la Glacière

Highlight • Viewpoint

Easy to get there by car, but nevertheless or precisely because of this, then a great hike with a view of the valley basin. As always, start as early as possible!
