Trekking & Mountain biking: Gentle mountains and deep gorges offer endless opportunities for hiking and trekking through dramatic coastline panoramas, lush forests and valleys.
Golf: One of the main sports attracting holidaymakers to Mauritius is Golf. Many of the resorts have their own 18 or 9 hole course.
