Reunion Island 여행 가이드

Reunion IslandGuide was updated: 2024-05-01

Escape to the enchanting island of Réunion, a tiny dot of land in the Indian Ocean, where lush rainforests, towering volcanic peaks, and pristine beaches invite adventurous souls. Embark on thrilling hikes through rugged terrain, marvel at the dramatic landscapes of Piton de la Fournaise—one of the world's most active volcanoes—indulge in the island's rich Creole cuisine, or simply unwind on the sandy shores while soaking in the warm tropical sun.

Do & See

With its abundance of natural beauty, Reunion is an island where any traveller is spoilt for choice. Do keep in mind that most locations up in the mountains are best visited before noon, since view-obstructing clouds tend to thicken at higher elevations as the day progresses. Dress in layers: the heat in waterside valleys below is misleading, and quickly turns to chilly winds up on the hilltops.

Piton de Fournaise

Put your hiking shoes on and plan a day trip up the magnificent Piton de Fournaise volcano - one of the most active peaks in the world. Joining a guided tour is highly recommended, not to mention wearing appropriate clothing, as temperatures tend to fall dramatically the higher up you go.

Le Maido

The island's north holds one of its most scenic spots at the le Maido summit, where stunning views over Reunion's west coast unfold before the eyes of enthralled visitors. To avoid madding crowds and possible weather changes, head to the summit early in the morning on a clear day.

Cirque de Mafate

The stunning, secluded caldera of Mafate is the place several tiny villages call home. Reaching the dazzling remote location is certainly worth the hike. Keep in mind there are not paved roads to go up, hence hiking for hours is unavoidable. For a better experience, it is recommendable to depart in the early morning hours from the Maido or Cilaos.

Jardin des Parfums et des Epices

Tropical flower fragrances fill the air already in the garden's parking lot, and the abundance of flower species becomes apparent once visitors set foot in the lush gardens. Learn and marvel at the indigenous plants, flowers, and spices.
