7 Scenic Drives in Reunion Island That You Shouldn't Miss

April 3, 2022 Agatha Simes

Home to one of the world's most active volcanoes, snow-capped Piton de Fournaise, Reunion is a little known gem. This rocky, French-governed island off the coast of East Africa is easily explored by Les Cars Jaunes, yellow buses that link main settlements. The road into the mountains provides breathtaking scenery. Bike tours on rough back roads are an option for the brave and the extremely fit. Beyond the reach of cars, untamed village Cirque de Mafate shows the island's wildest side.

RN5 Road

Reviewed By william_974

Ask about the weather beforehand. Rain can cause pebbles to fall on the road. We loved this excursion by car on the road to Cilaos. About 420 bends, the crossing of small villages and these majestic ramparts... This road is a bit difficult but it is quite typical. It's a magnificent, wonderful road with an exceptional spectacle that takes your eyes away.
