After my first hiking experience in Mauritius at Mount Le Pouce, which I shared with you earlier (Click here to read), I must admit that I have become quite the adventure seeker waiting to discover more and more exotic locations on the island. Needless to say, when my friends planned another hiking trip up the Signal Mountain, I jumped at the opportunity!
Signal Mountain or Montagne
des Signaux (in French) is located in Port Louis, the capital of Mauritius.
It is a very easy trek as there is a tarred road leading all the way to the
summit. The way is quite picturesque with beautiful views of the buildings in
the capital city, the harbour, the Champs de Mars racecourse, the western
coastline and other neighbouring peaks. The summit is at 3000m and can be done
in an hour (one way) or less if you are a pro (unlike me)!!
