Climbing Pieter Both — One of the Most Thrilling Adventures in Mauritius
Experience one of the most iconic mountain climbs in Mauritius with this exclusive guided ascent to the summit of Pieter Both, the island’s second-highest peak and one of its most spectacular viewpoints.
This carefully designed 4-hour adventure offers a unique and immersive hiking experience through forest trails, steep ridges, and exciting rock scrambling sections before reaching the summit. The final ascent includes an alpine-style climb using ropes and protection, giving you the feeling of true mountaineering while remaining fully guided and secure.
To ensure a smoother and more personalised experience, the climb is limited to a maximum of only two guests per guide, allowing for better safety, guidance, and no waiting for large groups.
From the summit, hikers are rewarded with breathtaking 360° panoramic views over the central plateau, turquoise lagoons, and dramatic mountain landscapes of Mauritius.
To make the adventure even more unforgettable, drone photos and video footage are included (weather permitting), capturing the climb and scenery from incredible perspectives.
Perfect for adventurous travellers, hikers, photographers, and anyone looking for a unique and authentic outdoor experience in Mauritius.
