How To Get To Dan Gallas Trail

The Dan Gallas Trail trail is located in the north of Mahé. It is in close proximity to other popular locations like Beau Vallon beach.

If you drive up by car, which we recommend due to time saving reasons, then simply follow the location laid out on Google Maps.

This should take you to the entry point of the hike, which is also where the bus stop is located. Parking is free and plentiful.

You also have a shop around the corner should you need to load up on water and snacks. If you take the bus, then you need to take line 32 to Le Niole.

The bus route ends at the entry of the hike. However, do be sure to notify your bus driver to drop you off or, alternatively, keep checking your mapping software of choice.
