Situated at the extreme southwestern tip of Mauritius, you will hike and climb to the memorial cross of Le Morne Brabant Mountain (UNESCO world heritage site), guided by our local and qualified mountaineer who is committed to safety, comfort and fun. Experience the first light of the day, followed by the magical sunrise with its golden colours which can be seen only at this time of the day.
This activity involves multiple rock-scrambling and climbing sections - participants having experience in mountaineering will be a great advantage. During the hike, you will learn about the unique flora and fauna of the island, the history of the mountain and the cultural aspects of Mauritius, accompanied by a local qualified mountain guide.

5.00The hike to Le Morne was wonderful. Kevin, the guide, was very good, explained everything to us and was also very motivating. I highly recommend the tour to everyone.
The Le Morne hole is totally worth it

5.00We met at 4 a.m. and hiked up Le Morne. We had a great time; a reasonable level of fitness is recommended. We spent an hour watching and admiring the sunrise before heading back down. Along the way, we received information and tips for the hike. We also got photos and videos. 10/10, it was worth it!🌅🌞🫶🏼
This one we will never forget 🫶🏼

5.00Our guide up Le Morne was booked through our hotel and we had the expertise of the wonderful Davilen . He picked us up from our hotel at 6am . We drove to the historical site and stated our climb . Davilen was extremely knowledgeable and gave us a huge insight to this spectacular mountain. Which in most parts was quite moving. He guided us safely and slowly up the steep mountain, we wore trainers, but we should really have had hiking boots as in some places it was extremely steep and slippery. We took our time and there was no rush , stopping along the way for a rest , water break and the photo shoot! We reached the top after over 3 hours, we are not climbers, in some parts found it extremely difficult but with Davilen’s encouragement we reached the top after, absolutely amazing views, well worth the climb it was spectacular something we will always remember we climbed down the mountain, slowly and carefully sometimes on our bottom’s , the safest way , we saw mountain cats who were very friendly and some monkeys watching us with great curiosity. This was a day we will never forget . I can’t stress enough that you do need a guide, to get you up there safely and down again in one piece. The most amazing experience, than you Davilen you are truly a Legend! 🙏🏼
Le Morne Hike Review April 2026

5.00The trip to the top of Le Morne was one of the highlights of our stay in Mauritius, our tour guide Gaël was one of my favourite people that I met during my time in our 2 week stay. He was experienced and kept me and my partner safe the whole journey, stopping for breaks whenever we needed (even though Gaël didn’t break a sweat the whole hike). We had great conversations up and down the mountain, and he knew everything about Le Mornes history. He’s a top man. Very much recommended to do the early starts as it was empty at the top and the views were crazy. Ben and Serena

4.00I did the 4:30 hike and we were easily the first group to reach the peak. I went in March, and although there wasn’t a true “sunrise,” the views were still absolutely amazing. Pickup was right on time, and as a bonus, I was dropped off at what my guide said is the best coffee spot on the island, KIND, for breakfast. The guide was well-prepared and even had a first aid kit, which came in handy when someone in the group slipped. Highly recommended!
Amazing experience- sunrise at 490m above sea level

5.00Fabulous experience with Gael, and 4 other tourists hiking up Le Mourne. Don’t be put off the the early start, starting at 4am gives you the most amazing sunrise at the top without any other visitors and means you are walking down as everyone else is coming up. Take lots of water, good walking boots or shoes and lots of insect repellent.
Incredible views at sunrise & attentive guide

5.00We had an amazing experience doing the sunrise hike on Le Morne Brabant with Matt. He was incredibly attentive throughout the entire hike, making sure we were safe, well hydrated, and always comfortable taking breaks whenever we needed. The views at sunrise were absolutely breathtaking and made the early start completely worth it. We would definitely recommend wearing proper hiking boots for better grip, as some parts can be quite steep. Overall, it was time and money very well spent. We highly recommend this experience, especially with Matt as your guide!
An unforgettable experience

5.00Highly recommend! This was a great tour and well worth it no matter your hiking experience. Easy to book and great communication. A note on my guide - I did a 1:1 guided hike with Gaël and it was absolutely breathtaking. Gaël helped me all the way through, especially on the parts of the hike where I was nervous or it was a bit tougher; he kept me going and made sure I felt safe and comfortable the whole way through. He was also incredibly knowledgeable and kept me entertained for the whole four hours ☺️ To top it off Gaël took some amazing “Instagram worthy” videos and photos for me. I would highly highly recommend a tour with Gaël and will most certainly be booking him again on future trips! Thank you so
Fun and Beauty at the Top

5.00My husband and I absolutely loved this hike and certainly felt accomplished afterward! Our guide was excellent, and our small group with another couple was very well taken care of. We are both athletic and work out, and we were fairly tired when we reached the top. There are some extremely steep places, and some sharp drop offs, so not recommended for those with fear of heights or who may have a harder time with steeper climbs. It was a fantastic climb and our photos from the guide capture the fun and beauty of making it to the top. Highly recommend!
A must-have for any Mauritius trip - for sports enthusiasts

5.00Mat was a great guide - in the dark it started and when I got to the top I saw one of the most beautiful sunrises - a dream - The ascent is easy for sporty people to master, in the end you are allowed to climb something.
