La Grande Montagne, a 276-metre high peak, is reached by walking on the limestone plateau.
The inland area is a hiker's paradise: the ascent of the Grande Montagne, the island's highest point at 276 metres, is followed by a walk on the limestone plateau, with its superb panorama of the Atlantic Ocean. Its springs supply the island with drinking water. The plateau is very steep to the north, with a much gentler slope to the south. You may be lucky enough to catch a glimpse of a few agoutis (a rodent) or golden hares... Iguanas, on the other hand, run much more slowly, but blend in with the rock.

Je vous conseille de louer un 4x4. L'ile est plus grande qu'il n'y parait et c'est le seul moyen de faire la montagne et le chemin cotier. Le scooter ne permet pas d'y monter et la marche a pied bien trop longue. Apres un gros dénivellé vous pouvez faire tout le plateau sur chemin caillouteux. Sensations plein air garantie. Pas besoin d'etre un as du pilotage.
