Hike in Mafate

Set out on an expedition in Mafate and marvel at the breathtaking scenery. Before climbing over the lovely highlands of Cayenne Islet, take a 4x4 ride via the rivière des Galets.

Explore Mafate with a professional mountain guide on a guided 4x4 ride and hike, and have an exciting adventure with spectacular views. Begin your journey with a thrilling 30-minute 4x4 ride in the bed of the Rivière des Galets.

Arrive at the trailhead and begin your ascent to Cayenne Islet. Cross a footbridge and take in the breathtaking panoramic view of a canyon.

Stop and take a breather at the next basin below. Enjoy a picnic meal in a beautiful natural environment.

The 7.5-mile walk takes roughly 5-6 hours to complete.

The 4WD track may be closed during cyclone season. We suggest the alternating walk "Sur les Remparts de Mafate" at Le Mado in this event.

This group excursion is only available in French.
