Situated in the island’s southwestern highlands, this viewpoint overlooks lush green valleys and dramatic ridges. It is a paradise for nature enthusiasts, birdwatchers, and hikers, as the area is home to several endemic species, including the pink pigeon, echo parakeet, and Mauritian kestrel. The viewpoint provides a perfect blend of tranquility and adventure: the fresh mountain breeze, the sound of rustling leaves, and the vast scenery create a sense of being surrounded by untouched wilderness.

Grand Bassin - Grand Bassin, located deep in the heart of Mauritius, is one of the island’s most sacred and serene sites. Situated about 6 km southeast of Mare aux Vacoas, this natural crater lake lies 550 meters above sea level in a secluded mountain area, surrounded by lush greenery. Known as Ganga Talao, it holds immense spiritual significance for Mauritians of the Hindu faith, who regard it as a holy lake connected to the sacred waters of the Ganges River in India. Every year, during the Maha Shivaratri festival, thousands of pilgrims walk long distances carrying decorated kanwars to honor Lord Shiva in a moving display of devotion. Around the lake stands a Hindu temple dedicated to Lord Shiva, along with shrines to other deities such as Hanuman and Lakshmi, and the towering statue of Lord Shiva welcomes visitors. Grand Bassin is not only a place of worship but also a symbol of unity, culture, and peace, offering both pilgrims and tourists a profound spiritual experience in Mauritius.

Mare aux Vacoas - Mare aux Vacoas is the largest freshwater reservoir in Mauritius, located in the highlands of the Plaines Wilhems district, near Curepipe. Built in 1885 and later expanded, the reservoir plays a vital role in supplying water to a large part of the island. Surrounded by dense forests and cool misty air, Mare aux Vacoas lies at an elevation of about 600 meters above sea level, giving it a tranquil, almost mysterious atmosphere. The area is rich in native vegetation and is also close to other natural attractions such as Grand Bassin (Ganga Talao) and the Black River Gorges National Park. Due to its altitude, the region often experiences cooler temperatures and frequent rainfall, which helps replenish the reservoir. While primarily serving as an essential water source, Mare aux Vacoas is also admired for its peaceful landscape, making it a popular stop for nature lovers, photographers, and those seeking a quiet retreat amidst Mauritius’ lush greenery.

La Marie - Afterward, head to a local restaurant for lunch. Prepare to immerse yourself in a distinctive Creole culinary journey with soulful, authentic local cooking.

Trou aux Cerfs - Trou aux Cerfs is a dormant volcanic crater located in the town of Curepipe. Rising to an altitude of about 605 meters above sea level, this natural wonder is one of the island’s most iconic landmarks. The crater itself measures roughly 350 meters in diameter and 80 meters deep, surrounded by lush vegetation, pine trees, and exotic plants. From its rim, visitors are treated to spectacular 360-degree panoramic views of the island, stretching across the central plateau, the surrounding mountains, and on clear days, even to the distant coastlines. Believed to have formed millions of years ago, the site is peaceful and easily accessible, often visited by joggers, families, and tourists alike who come to enjoy both its natural beauty and the cool, fresh highland air. It is a must-see spot for anyone wishing to explore Mauritius’ volcanic heritage and admire breathtaking island vistas.
