Mountain · Western uplands, Mafate, Plaine des Makes
4×4 excursion
Reach remote parts of the island by 4×4, among the ramparts and the uplands.
Some parts of Réunion’s uplands can only be reached by off-road vehicle. 4×4 excursions take you to spectacular viewpoints on the ramparts of Mafate, the heathland of the Grand Bénare or the volcanic plateaux of the Plaine des Makes.
Operators run guided half-day or full-day trips in small groups, with a driver who knows the tracks inside out.
Why do it
Access to wild parts of the island that most visitors never see, without the physical effort of a long hike.
What to expect
Tracks can be narrow and winding. Off-roading is an experience in itself if you’re not used to it.
Who it’s for
Open to everyone.
Practical tips
Wear warm clothes for the island’s uplands. Bring a picnic for a full-day trip.
