The Seychelles Islands, in a short time, managed to rise from the depths of obscurity to become one of the most in-demand tourist destinations in the world, thanks to her geographical splendour.
Mahé
This is the biggest island in Seychelles and is also the seat of the capital city of Victoria. The Morne Seychellois National Park is situated in the highlands which occupy the central and north-western parts of the island.
Morne Seychellois
This refers to the tallest mountain of Seychelles, and its peak is situated at an altitude of just under 3,000 feet and rises out of the thick rainforests that make up the eponymous national park. Almost any resort Seychelles has to offer in Mahé will be within easy reach of the national park, with examples including Berjaya Beau Vallon Bay Resort & Casino.
Morne Seychellois National Park
Amazingly, this national park takes up more than 20% of Mahé’s total surface area and showcases a surprisingly varied group of habitats. The central area of the park is covered in thick rainforest, and can only be accessed via a series of trails.
The Trails
There are a total of twelve trails throughout the park, and you can travel them at your own pace on a half-day or full-day excursion.
