Activity itinerary

Piton de la Petite Rivière Noire

  • 2h
Arguably one of the unmissable mountain hikes in Mauritius is the mountain climbing hike taking you all the way up to the highest peak of the island at Piton de la Petite Rivière Noire- found on the far western side of the Black River Gorges. Apart from the beautiful beaches that Mauritius can offer, this hike is all about enjoying an unpolluted stroll in the green meadows of your mountainous beauties. The first part of this trip is underneath a shady trail, surrounded by luxuriant vegetation. The walking trails are as scenic as the hiking trail itself. Nestled through some idyllic mountainous farming landscape, you will pass through the west of the island by embarking through the savage green of the gorges.

The second part is a little bit more challenging; being sometimes slippery. It will allow you to discover different viewpoints towards the South, the Morne Brabant lagoon and the Black River Gorges. Climbing up through the mountain path, you will get sneak previews of the ever-changing scenery down below. You’ll be met with views over the lush green hills and soaring escarpments. The final climb, short but intense, takes you to the summit of Piton de la Petite Rivière Noire, giving you a unique 360-degree perspective. The peak stands a whopping 828 metres above sea level; the highest point in Mauritius boasting hiking trails with incredible views. Snacks and water are provided and we do recommend that you wear comfortable sports/hiking shoes and clothes that would be highly protective. More to that, the use of insect repellent and sun cream is highly endorsed. Keep your camera handy to capture the breathtaking scenery of the rugged mountain vistas.
