Discover the green, untouched spots of the island that will surely make you want to come <a href=\"https:\/\/immo-ile-maurice.com\/en\/how-to-look-property-foreigners-mauritius\/\">live in Mauritius.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<h2>Trekking in Mauritius<\/h2>\n<p>Take a hike into the mountainous and green interiors of Mauritius. So many beautiful spots to discover and have your breath taken away.<\/p>\n<p>There are different treks to choose from. From a 3hr hike into The <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Black_River_Gorges_National_Park\">Black River Gorges National Park<\/a> extending on an area of 67.54 km2. The untouched, wild park is a must to discover for all nature lovers. Immerse into the peaceful forests of indigenous trees, take a swim in the rivers and connect with nature again, to the sound of the Echo-Parakeet, the Mauritian Kestrel, or the pink pigeon. Just what we all need after being inside at home for weeks.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>You will be accompanied by professional guides for a hike in the Natural Reserve of Yemen, home to thousands of Java deers brought to Mauritius by the Dutch back in 1598. You might also come across monkeys and wild pigs during your hike which is about 3hrs long.<\/p>\n<p>Aside from the obvious health benefits of hiking, the different trails of Mauritius are so worth discovering with its endemic forests and magnificent geological features for these special unforgettable moments.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-13739 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/immo-ile-maurice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_0892-2-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"foret black river national park\" width=\"710\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/immo-ile-maurice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_0892-2-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/immo-ile-maurice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_0892-2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/immo-ile-maurice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_0892-2-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 710px) 100vw, 710px\" \/><\/h2>\n<h2>Mountain hikes in Mauritius<\/h2>\n<p>Over the past few years, more and more people have shown a great interest in discovering the beautiful mountains of Mauritius. Most of them are more or less easily accessible and you get to discover that green side of Mauritius and come to a better understanding of the volcanic formation of the island.<\/p>\n<p>Try the climb to Le Pouce Mountain, which got its name from its thumb-shaped peak. This hike will take you to a height of 812 meters with breathtaking views of Port- Louis, the capital, the village of St Pierre. The hike itself is pretty easy all along except for the last bit where you will need to climb a few meters. Reaching the viewing platform you will witness a beautiful sunset and views on the Moka Mountain Range and parts of the Northern region of the island.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-8996 size-full lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/immo-ile-maurice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/le_pouce.jpg\" alt=\"le_pouce-immobilier-ile-maurice\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/immo-ile-maurice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/le_pouce.jpg 900w, https:\/\/immo-ile-maurice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/le_pouce-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/immo-ile-maurice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/le_pouce-768x512.jpg 768w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/600;\" data-original-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>However, the most famous mountain and well-known tourist attraction in Mauritius is the climb of Le Morne Brabant, situated on Le Morne peninsula and now UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The last bit of the hike is a bit harder and requires equipment, but you will be rewarded when reaching the top and discovering the breathtaking view of the turquoise lagoon and spectacular surroundings.<\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-13745 size-full lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/immo-ile-maurice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/65ebac6cd63d9b8769e175fcac43e5da.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"736\" height=\"552\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/immo-ile-maurice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/65ebac6cd63d9b8769e175fcac43e5da.jpg 736w, https:\/\/immo-ile-maurice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/65ebac6cd63d9b8769e175fcac43e5da-300x225.jpg 300w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 736px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 736\/552;\" data-original-sizes=\"(max-width: 736px) 100vw, 736px\" \/><\/h2>\n<h2>More places to discover in Mauritius<\/h2>\n<p>There are more amazing places to discover on the island.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0Why not go up Pieter Both Mountain, a bit more challenging and great for real challenge or Lion Mountain in the Bambous Mountain Range, known to be the only witness left of the Battle of Grand Port. \u00a0Several other trails across the island can be done.
