How to travel à PITON DE LA FOURNAISE

How to go alone

You will have to disembark at the airport of Saint Pierre/Tréfonds, the closest to the Piton. You can rent a car to get closer and first join Bourg Murat which opens on the forest track to the Pas de Bellecombe at 30 km. There you can put on your hiking boots and continue climbing on foot. Attention: to participate in the Grand Raid you must be a well-trained raider and be properly equipped.

How to go on a tour

Some agencies on the spot or from the metropolis propose turnkey stays to participate in the Grand Raid du Piton de la Fournaise or to stay in the Grande Plaines with hikes to discover the Piton de la Fournaise. It is a solution that will simplify your task for the Grand Raid and safe to survey the slopes of the Piton.

How to get around

The easiest way is to rent a car when you arrive at the airport. The formula is well tried and tested. You can also rent a scooter (cheaper) or take a cab (more expensive). In organized tours, you will ride in the minibus of your group. As for the raiders, it goes without saying that they will do most of their travel... by running!
