Chamarel
The start is in the magnificent grounds of the Château de Bel Ombre. During the first 15 km to Le Morne, take time to warm up while enjoying the picture-postcard scenery: lagoon and white sandy beaches on the horizon. A series of climbs follow around the world-famous peak of Le Morne, overlooking the lagoon from all sides. The climbs build up to the Parakeet Trail, known for its technicality, passing Ebony Forest, Chamarel and the island's highest point: Piton de la Rivière Noire (828m).
Before tackling the last 50 km, the passage to Piton Paille en Queue will offer you a haven of freshness and greenery to recharge your batteries. With the hardest part behind you, a final ascent to the Tourelle de Tamarin offers incredible panoramic views, with Le Morne in your sights, the landmark for your arrival. But before that, you'll have to cross 7 different chassés. Keep your eyes peeled for deer!
The last 6 kilometers will be a healthy stroll along the lagoon and onto the final beach of Le Morne, where the finish line will be set up. Now you can enjoy the incredible beaches of Mauritius to the full.
