Le Morne Brabant is a peninsula at the extreme southwestern tip of the Indian Ocean island of Mauritius on the windward side of the island. It is highlighted by an eponymous basaltic monolith with a summit 556 metres above sea level. Known as one of the most iconic hikes on the island with spectacular views of southwestern corner of the island, this is a must!
This is the perfect activity for nature lovers and adventure seekers. Declared World Heritage by UNESCO since July 6, 2008, the site is a sanctuary for runaway slaves and is a strong cultural and patrimonial symbol for every Mauritian. The mountain is home to a multitude of endemic species, such as the rare Trochetia Boutonania, and its red flaming flower.

The hike was remarkably safe, offering not only a refreshing outdoor adventure but also a rich educational journey. Throughout the hike, knowledgeable guides provided history of the land and explanations about the various plant species we encountered along the way. These made the hike both enjoyable and enlightening.

The transfer was smooth to and from Le Morne. The actual hike was a phenomenal experience. Yudish, the guide for our group, was very knowledgable about the history of the mountain, Mauritius and the plants on the mountain. I am afraid of heights so at certain times during the hike for scared, but Yudish made me feel comfortable and safe. Would definitely recommend!

First of all, I only use Viator. It simply is the most trusted and best tour operator you will find! Any problems and Viator will resolve them for you at ease and without issue. As for the tour itself, we had a very pleasant driver who had to be up super early to collect us from the other side of the island and he made us feel very comfortable and welcome. The mountain climb, I say climb as it was no hike was a very memorable experience and quite a challenge. Our guide Matt/ Matthieu was such a great guy, he made us feel safe bud we got on really well, exchanged contact details and remain in touch. He is an expert guide and was very helpful for other people on the tour who found the climb to be quite a challenge. My partner and I regularly go to the gym and that cling was a serious workout. You can’t really see the underwater waterfall illusion from the top of the mountain but the views are still absolutely breathtaking and it was well worth the experience. If you book through this tour operator ask for Mathieu as you can be in better hands he really looked after us well and went the extra mile to ensure we had a memorable and safe experience
