Hiking tours

Mou’a Puta hike by the day

Head for Moorea, Tahiti’s sister island, just a 30-minute ferry ride away, which is ideal for a round trip in a day.

Together, we’ll climb the famous Mou’a Puta mountain. You’ll discover its origins through Polynesian legends and contemplate its beauty.

We’ll start in the commune of Afareitu for a 3-hour hike to the summit. At the top, you’ll enjoy panoramic views of Moorea, other mountains and magical bays. Then it’s a leisurely descent.
