Three Coconuts Pass Trail

Col des Trois Cocotiers

A classic hiking route starting from near the viewpoint, crossing rainforest to reach the pass, with views of the north and south sides of the island and of Mount Mouaroa.

The Three Coconuts Pass Trail starts near the viewpoint and passes through chestnut and bamboo groves. The round trip takes about 3–4 hours and climbs about 400 meters. The pass lies between Mount Tohiea and Mount Mouaroa. From it, you can see Opunohu Valley to the north and the lagoon to the south. The pass once had three coconut trees, which no longer exist, but the name has been kept. Admission is free. Trail markers are basic, and the path is very slippery after rain, so wear non-slip shoes, bring plenty of water, or go with a local guide.
