Trou Aux Cerfs, Mauritius Overview

Trou Aux Cerfs is a dormant volcano, one of the four in Mauritius. Also called Murr's Volcano, it is located in the Curepipe area and is one of Mauritius's most famous natural tourist attractions. The volcanic crater is 650 metres above sea level and has a depth of 100 metres. It is surrounded by dense green forest and offers a stunning panoramic view of the Rempart Mountain, Trois Mamelles, and the Port-Louis- Moka mountain range.

Trou Aux Cerfs is famous not just because of its inward view but because of its outside view as well because one look out towards the ocean gives you a panoramic 360 degree of the entire island and the miles of water surrounding it. The bowl of the crater is densely forested, and it is a favourite hangout for walkers and joggers. It is believed that this volcano erupted once and has since remained dormant for the last 700000 years.

How To Reach Trou Aux Cerfs

Even though the volcano is a natural protrusion in the middle of a dense forest, and not located in the centre of an industrialised area, once you are in Curepipe, getting to Trou aux Cerfs is one of the most straightforward tasks ever. All you have to do is to set out on a drive westward from the city centre towards Floreal, which will have you travel a distance of 1 km before you wind up on the Trou-aux-Cerfs road which circles the entire mountain. There are three access points to Trou Aux Cerfs - ‘La Hausse de la Louviere Road’, ‘Edgar Huges Road’ and ‘Crater Lane’
