About Le Pouce in Mauritius

Le Pouce or The Thumb stands as the third highest mountain (with a height of 812 meters) in entire Mauritius after Piton de la Petite Riviere and Pieter Both. Le Pouce Mauritius hiking is quite popular for the views of the city that it offers. Its peak can be seen from Port Louis. Le Pouce Mauritius has formed nearly 10 million years ago in a basalt lava dome. It is significant to note that Charles Darwin ascended this mountain on 2nd May 1836. The mountain has some endemic species of flora that enhance its significance.

The Le Pouce Mauritius hiking is an amazing and adventurous experience for the tourists. The climb is not termed very hard and can be actually enjoyed. It is a hike of nearly 4.3 kilometers and takes nearly 2-3 hours. The peak of the mountain offers stunning panoramic views of the capital of the island, Port Louis. Towards the north are the Snake Island and the Flat Island while after turning a bit, one can view the Pieter Both towards the East. The south is covered with many mountains and oceans and lastly the views of the entire Moka range. Le Pouce is undoubtedly not a place to be missed while traveling to Mauritius because of the views that it offers and also the amazing hiking experience that it promises.

    Swati's 7 days trip to Mauritius

    Thank you for a wonderful tour and exceptional hospitality! Although there was a little hiccup with the flight booking initially, the rest of the trip was flawlessly organized and truly memorable. Your efforts made the experience enjoyable, and we look forward to traveling with you again!

    Rohan's 6 days trip to Mauritius

    We experienced so many aspects of this fascinating region of Mauritius. Engrossing and stimulating. The trip was varied, well paced and brilliantly organised. It's the second time we've been with Travel Triangle, and first with AGA Holidays which says everything about their efficiency, friendliness
    and organizational skills. Special token of appreciation to Aman from AGA Holidays for arranging this within a short notice.

    Ghareanagha's 6 days trip to Mauritius

    The trip was a good, awesome experience. The resort was also very nice. Few things to highlight - when we reached Mauritius airport we got to know that our itinerary has changed, which was disappointing Also, the driver has not covered all the sightseeing points. They skipped some points. Althou
    gh the overall experience was good, we had a fun, very relaxing trip...

    Nitin Mathur

    Hyderabad

    Nitin's 6 days trip to Mauritius

    We had a very nice experience in Mauritius. The agent informed us about everything in advance so it was a breeze. The resort was very nice and the only thing missing was good food. They have indian options but very bland. Use salt generously and carry packaged aachar packets with you. We had a shar
    ed transport and fortunately our pickup was always last to we got plenty of time in the morning. Check that with your agent while booking or you can opt for private transfer. Most places accept cards without any charge but some places (mostly activities) charge a 3.5% premium on card. If you want all cash probably carry around 15k cash in MUR more if you want to enjoy all activities. Overall a very nice experience. Recommended things to do: Do undersea walk and the signature zip line (1.5 kms)
