Trou aux Cerfs is situated on the high plateau in Curepipe, at 605m above sea level, one of the highest points of the island. A dormant volcano, Trou aux Cerfs had been active some 20 million years ago during the creation of Mauritius. It is a crater, with a 300m diameter and is one of the best viewpoints of the island. From Trou aux Cerfs, enjoy panoramic views over almost the whole island. It has also an excellent jogging track that goes around the crater and is very popular with the locals living in the vicinity of Curepipe and Floreal. A stop at Trou aux Cerfs is included in our Wild South West sightseeing tour or can be visited in other day packages.
Free entrance at all times.
Trou aux Cerfs also has a jogging track and an outdoors gym, which are very popular among locals.
The best way to visit is to join in on a tour. And the best is the Wild South West Tour.
The view point is amazing as you can enjoy panoramic views over almost all sides of the island. But the best is the view over the west coast. And if you are there at sunset, the view is splendid.
