About this experience

Hiking Tours in Amitié is a guided walking activity based on the coastal path of Amitié on Praslin Island in the Seychelles. The tour follows a flat, sandy trail that runs alongside the Indian Ocean, passing through casuarina groves and local fishing spots. It operates as a half-day excursion, typically lasting three hours, with a certified local guide leading groups of up to eight walkers.

What to expect

Duration is three hours, covering a 5-kilometre out-and-back route from Amitié beach to the Anse Volbert headland.
The guide provides commentary on the island's coconut plantations, granite boulders, and the nesting sites of hawksbill turtles during the October to March season.
Included in the fee are a pair of lightweight trekking poles, a refillable water bottle, and a sun hat for each participant.
The trail is flat and wheelchair-accessible for the first 1.5 kilometres, then becomes sandy with exposed roots for the remaining section.
Suitable for families with children aged eight and above, as well as for older adults with moderate fitness levels.
The tour ends with a 20-minute rest stop at a shaded picnic bench, where fresh coconut water and local banana chips are served.
