Details
An emblematic trail of Mauritius.
All finishers of the Long Trail will have their performance registered with ITRA, giving them an international ranking.
The races start at Chamarel and finish at the Parakeet antenna - several kilometres away. You must organise your own logistics which take this into account. There is no organised transport provided.
Please offer places in your vehicle to fellow trailers, so that we reduce the number of vehicles, and are eco-responsible.
PLEASE DO NOT PARK ON THE CORNER at the Parakeet Antenna - this is dangerous for traffic. There is lots of space along the straight part of the road. Thank you!
