"i started at the summit of signal mountain and then summited Quoin Bluff. from quoin bluff i continued the track to the 2 CEB towers and at that moment, turn right to go off track and road towards the summit of spear grass, the path is visible with some spiky plants along the way but not hard, on that day i conquered 7 peaks, from signal mountain to quoin bluff to spear grass to goat rock to snail rock to junction to le pouce. it took 5hr 30 mins, at some point there is no path to follow, you have to make your own path along the dense woods with the scorching heat and humidity. After Snail rock there is a long way that you will have to tackle through ridge walking, on the sides are 2 crevasses few 100m height with strong winds blowing. Damn that moment was stressful. i could see people on the summit of le pouce but as i was approaching le pouce, the peak became smaller and smaller as if i was having an optical illusion. I started at 7 in the morning and at 12 30 i was on the top of le Pouce mountain contemplating the range that i conquered alone." — zakareeyahtoofanny • Jan 4, 2025

"This was my very first hike in Mauritius...and I picked one of the most difficult ones. I wanted to turn back 3times (which is not like me), but it was so tough. I pushed thru, and I did it! Super proud of myself!! Took 3h16min" — henriettegresse • Jan 27, 2024

"Corps de Garde (translation: Guard Corpse) is a 720-metre-high mountain of volcanic origin, in the area Palma in the Black River district of Mauritius. The name derived from the fact that a French military post was once established on its slope to control the bands of runaway slaves. This basaltic rock formation has an imposing appearance which is characterized by an abruptly breakup of the slope towards the sea. It is resembling a figure of a guard with its beret sleeping on his abdomen and looking forward. It is also famous for a nature reserve of about 90.33 ha with a very rare flora such as Trochetia parviflora which was rediscovered on a mountain slope in 2001, Pilea trilobata which was rediscovered in 2005 and the Mandrinette. On the foot of that hill are the towns of Beau Bassin-Rose Hill and Quatre Bornes #corpsdegarde #corpsdegardeMountain #mauritiusmountain #hiking #mauritius" — OlivierM • Mar 19, 2022
