3.Le Morne Mountain UNESCO Eco Hike

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 483 reviews · 4 hours · from $82

Climb Le Morne Brabant with Bryn James and the Eco Explorers Mauritius team. A 4WD ride through a private wildlife estate leads to a sunrise hike, four scrambling sections, lagoon views, conservation stories, and summit photos. The $82, four-hour trip includes a guide, insurance, and photographs, but you must bring your own food and water.

“As a young couple with no prior hiking experience, we were a bit nervous about this trip, but Bryn immediately put us at ease. He made us feel safe and confident throughout. The hike to the top of Le Morne was challenging, but the descent proved even tougher. However, reaching the summit was absolutely worth it—the views are breathtaking! Bryn’s personal touch truly enhanced our experience. He captured incredible photos of our journey, which he kindly shared with us at no extra cost by the end of the day. Starting at 4am was an early wake-up call, but it was well worth it, especially as the temperature reached almost 40°C…”

The climb is demanding, so bring grippy hiking shoes and confirm the start time if sunrise is your main goal.

“No sunrise at the summit – misleading info but great guide We booked the Le Morne sunrise hike and confirmed with Local Spirit Ltd. that starting at 5:00 AM would allow us to see the sunrise from the summit (see chat Screenshot). Unfortunately, the sun had already risen while we were still at the parking area. Other groups started much earlier and were already on top. This was disappointing, as the sunrise was the main reason for booking. The tour timing and description are misleading and should be updated. Our guide Elando was excellent – very friendly, attentive, and helpful throughout the hike, especially during the climbing sections. Tip: The…”
