Description

Start your morning with pickup from your hotel, villa, or apartment and enjoy a scenic drive to Le Morne Brabant, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Mauritius’ most iconic natural landmarks. Your guide will lead you safely along the trail while sharing fascinating stories about the mountain’s history, cultural importance, and the breathtaking views awaiting you along the way. The hike offers a moderate challenge with a mix of gentle walks and short climbs.

From the summit, admire the panoramic scenery stretching endlessly across the ocean. This rewarding experience is both energizing and peaceful, allowing you to connect deeply with nature and the powerful spirit of this sacred mountain. After your descent, visit the Monument aux Esclaves Marrons at the foot of Le Morne. This moving memorial, known as The Cry of Freedom, honors the runaway slaves who once sought refuge on the mountain. It stands as a symbol of courage, resistance, and the island’s enduring spirit of freedom. Take a moment to reflect at this poignant site, an important part of Mauritius’ cultural heritage.

Relax by the calm lagoon, capture stunning photos of Le Morne Brabant from below, or enjoy a refreshing swim in the crystal-clear waters. The peaceful setting is the perfect way to unwind after your morning adventure. For lunch, you will have the option to stop at a Sugar restaurant in La Gaulette. Enjoy an authentic island meal in a tropical setting at your own expense before returning comfortably to your hotel, villa, or apartment. As the day comes to an end, you will leave with more than just photos. You will carry memories of Mauritius’ stunning landscapes, rich culture, and warm hospitality.
