Stay : The main summits of Mayotte
For hiking enthusiasts, it is best to avoid a tour during the southern summer when tropical showers are frequent and make the ground muddy and loose. Prefer the dry season to discover Mayotte on foot. Plan an accommodation from where you will leave by car or cab to reach the beginning of the trail and a means of locomotion for the return on another point

Steps: Dzoumogné
Departure by car or bush taxi to reach the beginning of the GR and discover Dziani Bolé with its views of the northern islets.
Day 3: Towards Convalescence
Steps: Mamoudzou
Discover the remains of the Governor's House, then a holiday resort for the highest representative of the State when he wanted to take "the fresh". Century-old mango trees line the trail and, with a bit of luck, you will see dogfish hanging from the trees. Don't worry, they're not mean or aggressive. Vegetarian, they are just as greedy for fruit as makis.
