Le Pouce — Local services in Isle Mauritius

Nice trail to follow to the peak of Le Pouce. Not so difficult and can be climbed at your own pace (saw a 3 year old climb 😎). Can get muddy due to the frequent rainfalls. Remember to check the weather before going as you wouldn't want fog to cloud the view of the island; or shiver under the rain while the strong winds crashes against you. You feel warm in the sun and cold in the shades. You might wanna take your jacket or raincoat along. Go to the closest road to the mountain if you're using Maps. Plan for spare clothes of course if you think you may slip. Around May, you could even enjoy "Goyaves de Chine" (strawberry guava) or "Goyaves de France" (yellow cherry guava) directly from the trees...

We arrived here at 11 pm, and the night before it had rained, the stones did not have time to dry, it was very slippery and dirty, we walked very slowly, because it was very dangerous. I recommend that you sensibly assess your strengths before...

Best place for hiking but not the easy one. Track is getting harder and harder so prepare yourself properly. Track can be muddy and small stones can put you in a situation so put the best grip shoes and have a hiking stick as well it can help. Just near the top its very hard and you do need help don’t be shy people are very generous they help. Be careful with monkeys as well sometime they do come near you to for food but please don’t feed them they can be aggressive to snatch the food from you. While raining that place can be covered thick clouds again take...
