Treks and hikes

Alizés Montagnes invites you to walk across Reunion Island, accompanied by a mountain leader.

To respond to each desire, several formulas are offered:

Mini-trek

- Short duration treks (2 to 4 days), either as a loop or a return hike.
- This formula is particularly adapted if you have little time on your hands, or if you wish to devise your holiday yourself, alternating guided hikes and other outdoor activities, moments with your family or friends...
- Several difficulty levels are available. You carry your gear and picnics for 2 to 4 days.
- For some mini-treks, a vehicle is required to reach the starting/ending point (inadequate public transports).

Day-hike

- Loop, return or crossing hikes.
- Difficulty as per your wishes.
- These hikes are suited for those who like to walk several hours a day.

Trek

- Sequence of hikes across the Uplands. This formula essentially focuses on mountain life.
- Length, difficulty and places of interest as per your wishes.
- These tours are aimed at people who are used to hiking in the mountains (hiking time and high differences in level, sequence). You carry your equipment and picnics for several days.

Hiking and exploration tour

- A selection of nice mountain hikes of one or several days, return walks or loops, alternately with a more general exploration of the island: vanilla producers, banana farms, gardens, creole mansion, sugar factory, museums, markets, coast...
- Length, difficulty and places of interest as per your wishes.
- These tours are suited for those who like to walk several hours a day. They don’t require any particular training, but are nonetheless sportive! You carry your individual equipment and picnics for one or several days depending on the hikes.
