A great hike trail with stunning views in Mahe Seychelles

Hiking the Morne Blanc nature trail in MahĂ©, Seychelles, is a must for #nature lovers and adventure seekers looking for a manageable yet rewarding trek. 📍Address: The trailhead is conveniently located just off Sans Souci Road, near the Tea Factory-an easy spot to reach by car or taxi. The hike itself is about 1.6 kilometers (one way) and takes roughly 1–1.5 hours to reach the summit, depending on your pace. The path is well-marked but can be steep and slippery, especially after rain, so I highly recommend wearing sturdy hiking shoes and bringing water. Along the way, you’ll walk through dense cloud forest, with the chance to spot endemic birds like the Seychelles bulbul and unique plants such as wild cinnamon and pitcher plants. The real highlight is the wooden viewing platform at the top, which offers sweeping views over Mahé’s west coast and the shimmering Indian Ocean. đŸ–ïžBAmbiance/Facilities: There are no facilities on the trail, so pack snacks and water and be prepared for a humid climb. Early morning is the best time to hike, as it’s cooler and less crowded. Overall, the Morne Blanc trail is a fantastic way to experience #seychelles natural beauty and enjoy one of the island’s best panoramic vistas.
