Top 5 Mountains in Reunion Island, Reunion Island

April 19, 2022 Brain Ambrose

Home to one of the world's most active volcanoes, snow-capped Piton de Fournaise, Reunion is a little known gem. This rocky, French-governed island off the coast of East Africa is easily explored by Les Cars Jaunes, yellow buses that link main settlements. The road into the mountains provides breathtaking scenery. Bike tours on rough back roads are an option for the brave and the extremely fit. Beyond the reach of cars, untamed village Cirque de Mafate shows the island's wildest side.

Piton des Neiges

Soaring to over ten thousand feet, this often snow-capped peak is Reunion Island’s tallest mountain.

Piton des Neiges is not an easy place to reach. But, if you cope with the difficulties of this hike, you will enjoy one of the most beautiful sight in Réunion Island. If you are used to mountain hiking, you can dot it (up and down) in a single day. But if you’re not used to, or if you are with children, you had better to sleep in the « refuge de la caverne dufour ». But don’t expect for comfort and good cooking. The owners do the minimum.

Beautiful Vista. But the drive up the Mountain is equally impressive. The hikes are far and time consuming, but you will enjoy the trip to the top without doing the hikes.

Discovery of a Creole garden of "change of air" articulated around three spaces: an old part of the nineteenth century, a place of conviviality, a piece of primary forest. The guided tour is a dive into the history of men and plants in Reunion and emphasizes the extraordinary natural and human biodiversity of this small island. Listed Historical Monument
