The Gros Piton Hike is a challenging yet rewarding hike done on the island. It is not for the faint of heart or for persons who are out of shape.

Along the way there are panoramic viewpoints and rest points to catch a breather and also an opportunity to take some photos. The guides provided are independent guides trained by the SRDF, who will ensure you are safe and aid you to the top. Your driver will transport you privately to and from the base of the hike.
